[pokerfan]

Next month is the 100th anniversary of the disastrous voyage of the RMS Titanic — the unsinkable ship that wasn't. And just in time for this momentous occasion, National Geographic is featuring the clearest, most high-resolution images of the Titanic at rest on the ocean floor.

Compiled from thousands of high-resolution images, these pictures offer the first ever complete views of the TItanic's ruins. Check out four more super-high-res images, plus an excerpt from the Naitonal Geographic article, below.

7. We already had lots of stuff from that period. It is not necessary

I am going to plug this pictures into my HD 3D OLED display.

I hope I do not have nightmares like I had after watching Cameron's Titanic.

I must research history so it doesn't happen again.

I must research my fear. Well, because it is there.
