Brand-new full-size digital scans of the Titanic have revealed haunting new details of the ship which sank over 100 years ago.

Deep-sea mapping of more than 700,000 images by Magellan Ltd carried out in 2022 has revealed a complete view of the wreck, which lies 12,500ft (3,800 metres) below the surface of the Atlantic ocean.

The images show the ship in two parts, with the stern separated from the bow by around 2,600ft (800 metres).
