Aren’t there still a few missing dead? At some point some remains might be found.

Examining this wreck will be like a time capsule, a look into the past.

I was alive when this ship sank, and in those days man had never sent a device out of the Solar System, the Lone Ranger was a popular American hero, homosexual GIs couldn’t marry and twerking was unknown to most Americans.

Much is made of how the ship is being raised as if it had never been done before. If anyone can get the photos of the righting of the USS OKLAHOMA, at Pearl Harbor, back in 1942 you will see virtually the same thing.

I have a book showing the righting of the Oklahoma. All that work, then it was to be towed back to the US for rebuilding. It sank on the way.

I imagine a bunch of fish and other sea creatures liked their new home.

I don’t think it is rust. I think it is algae and crustaceans.
