The tragedy of the Titanic has fascinated all since she sank with 1,500 of her passengers and crew in 1912. Much later, scientist Robert Ballard set out to find and explore the wreck, despite difficulties of depth and location. Using the research submarine Alvin and a remote-controlled underwater robot, he was the first human in over 70 years to see the giant resting beneath the North Atlantic waves. Secrets of the Titanic tells the story of the events leading up to the sinking using footage and photographs from the doomed maiden voyage and then follows the luckier Dr. Ballard through the steps leading to his discovery. As usual for National Geographic, the photography is excellent, even within the cramped confines of the tiny Alvin. The first views of the Titanic's interior are truly spectacular, especially when contrasted with vintage photos, and the excitement of Ballard and his crew is contagious. The spirit and joys of discovery are well captured and the viewer is reminded that the world is still teeming with opportunities for adventure. --Rob Lightner

This documentary is a greatly detailed account of the 1986 finding of the Titanic by Robert Ballard and his team.
There is a lot of great footage of the sunken ship as well as interactive menus with extras.
It goes into brief history of the ship and its tragic end. It is mostly about the 1986 exploration.
Buy it.
Enjoy

I remember watching this when it first aired many years ago on National Geographic. It doesn't disappoint now. When Ballard found the Titanic it was HUGE news, and seeing it in this documentary ... and also seeing first hand the effort that went into its discovery ... brings it all back. Must also say that Martin Sheen's narration was perfect.
This is definitely a keeper for the ages.

This was an older program, so I wasn't expecting a high definition presentation, but even so, it was pretty slow and you didn't see very much. It was mostly focused on the expedition and there really wasn't a lot of the wreckage and artifacts shown. I have seen more recent programs that do more justice to it.
