“My mission was to find those reactors and find those weapons. But we
didn’t want the Soviets to know that we were doing that or they’d put a
satellite on us and we’d lead them to our submarines,” said Dr Ballard.
“And so we needed a cover and I suggested naturally the Titanic, because
I wanted to find the Titanic. And so we then went out and actually did our
covert operations and then went and did the Titanic, but there was only a
few days left.”
Save the Titanic with Bob Ballard is due to be broadcast on Monday,
April 9 at 8pm on the National Geographic Channel.
