RMS Titanic Inc. the company that owns the salvage rights for the wreck of the Titanic, has received permission from a U. S. Federal Court to send a submersible down to cut into the wreck to retrieve the Marconi wireless set from the wreck. After 108 years in salt water it probably doesn't work any more, but has some historical significance obviously.
The overall wreck is said to be deteriorating significantly. I admit that surprises me. I thought the lack of O2 at that depth slowed corrosion down significantly. Shows you what I know.

Of course, there may also be other unmentioned valuables. Who would know?
