As a memorial of sorts for the people who died.
Dr. Robert Ballard found the titanic in 1985..... He is an underwater archaeologist.
no, it was found in 1985 by Robert Duane Ballard in the North Atlantic Ocean
Dr. Robert Ballard utilized the Argo, which was a deep sea underwater craft. Going by what he found when he used the Argo to search for two sunken Navy submarines, he then used it to seach for a debris field. His belief is that Titanic imploded as it sank to the ocean floor. He eventually found the Titanic on September 1, 1985.

well i was reading on google and i found that Dr. Robert Ballard had put a plaque in the ship when he first found it. so the titanic could be there forever....as much as i know!
he search the ocean floor of the Atlantic ocean and came upon an unidentified ship wreak then explored the outside of the ship and came upon the front and identified it
There were many attempts to find the wreck, all unsuccessful, until 1985 when the confirmed discovery was credited to Dr. Robert Ballard.
As of my last update, Robert Ballard, the renowned oceanographer and explorer, is still alive. He is best known for discovering the wreck of the Titanic in 1985 and for his contributions to deep-sea exploration. It is always a good idea to verify information through reliable sources for the most up-to-date information on individuals.

Automobile accident in 1989. Drove a little too fast around a curve, lost traction on a wet spot and hit a tree. Three days before he had been on an ocean expedition with his father, Bob Ballard, who first discovered the Titanic in 1985.
