Titanic sister ship’s wreck to become seabed museum
Helena Smith
Athens: The wreck of the hospital ship Britannic — sister ship of the Titanic — that sank in 1916 is to become a seabed museum. Titanic sank in 1912. Nearly 92 years have elapsed since Captain Charles Bartlett, standing in his pyjamas on the bridge of the biggest vessel in the world, the HMHS Britannic, gave the call to abandon the ship. The Britannic, used as a wartime hospital , was discovered at a depth of 122 metres by explorer Jacques Cousteau in 1975. — © Guardian Newspapers Limited, 2008
