This fascinating exhibit is something that you can easily spend a lot of time exploring. In photos arranged into a mosaic on large screens, you can see exactly what the S.S. Republic looked like when the wreck was discovered. Press buttons to zoom in and see the site close-up (up to 25x magnified) or click on specific areas in the mosaic to see underwater videos of that section of the ship. You can see the wreck in astonishing detail! There are fish poking their heads out of the ship and treasures scattered about. This exhibit really gives you an idea of how the scientists felt when they found the wreck and how many artifacts were on the ocean floor. Can you find where the ship’s thousands of coins were hidden?
