The first manned survey of the rusting RMS Titanic in 13 years will depart in June from St. John’s, N.L. – and they’re still taking applications.

“It’s not for somebody who’s frail but it’s not as strenuous as, say, climbing a major mountain or going on a one-week bike trip through the Alps which some of our participants have done,” said expedition leader Stockton Rush, CEO of OceanGate Inc., a private company based in Everett, Wash.

Far more people have explored space than have seen the Titanic, resting about 4,000 metres deep in the North Atlantic off Newfoundland.

Six women from the British Army have become the largest all-female group to ski coast-to-coast across Antarctica.

The Ice Maiden team began the 1,000-mile expedition on 20 November – each pulling an 80kg sledge behind them.

After 62 days on the ice, the six soldiers crossed the finish line at the Hercules Inlet just before 10:00 GMT.
