A part of our history may vanish before our very own eyes. It has recently been discovered that a bacteria named Halomonas titanicae is eating away at the Titanic wreck and leaving dust in replace of the infamous remains. Since this bacteria is chewing away at the Titanic at a faster rate than any of us could have expected, than the prediction made in 1995 that the Titanic will be on the ocean floor for another 30 years will be proven false. Eventually all that will be left of the Titanic will be a rust stain. This is due to the fact that the eating away of iron is a natural process and this is its way of returning it to nature.
