Australians and the RMS Titanic

Andrew Rogers is one of the few people who have made the epic 2½-hour journey inside a submersible pod, down into the dark, cold depths of the watery graveyard of the doomed RMS Titanic.

Andrew has an amazing tale to tell of his 4-kilometre descent in 1998, as well as his subsequent research into all aspects of Australia’s involvement in the fateful Titanic disaster – including the intriguing stories of the Australians on board. Join us for an amazing adventure!
