The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute has released over 80 minutes of rare footage from the 1986 expedition to the wreckage of the Titanic wherein the downed vessel was observed by humans for the first time. According to a press release, the breathtaking video was captured around a year after the remains of the ship were discovered in September of 1985. During the expedition, a three-person crew aboard the human-operated submarine dubbed 'Alvin' dispatched a smaller remote-controlled vehicle, known as 'Jason Jr,' which was able to venture inside the remnants of infamous ocean liner.
