Telegraph machine from Titanic set to be recovered

-

THE Titanic’s telegraph machine, which broadcast distress signals as the liner sank, is set to be salvaged. The company RMS Titanic can use a submersibl­e to rescue the artefact, a US judge ruled – modifying a previous order that banned cutting into the wreck. The firm plans to exhibit it to ‘tell the story of Titanic’s desperate fate’. But the National Oceanic and Atmospheri­c Administra­tion argued it is surrounded by ‘mortal remains’ which should be left alone.
