Hms Terror Research Paper

A ship was spotted at the bottom of the Arctic Bay and it was the HMS Terror, it has been 168 years since the last time it has been seen. Crew members found a note that was there in the ice showing that the men to follow the Back River to safety at a trading outpost. People captured images that give a look at sea life almost 170 years ago! The search to find the boat started in 2008. The HMS Terror has been found after 168 years after it was abandoned, it is in perfect condition and can float!

Researchers found out that the HMS Terror was abandoned. This website called Maclean’s states, “Terror was tucked into a bay far south of where was it was abandoned suggests” (www.macleans.ca) This means that we don’t know how exactly it was abounded,
Text states from “Doomed ship found 168 years later” says, “About 24 meters down, the ship is in excellent condition.” This means that even tho the ship was 80 feet down in the sea for 168 years it still is in perfect conditions. Text from CBC New texted says,”It is perfectly preserved in the frigid waters of the Northwest Passage. With all three masts standing and almost all hatches closed”. (www.cbc.ca) This means that the ship has almost all its parts and and all its poles holding up are still well, holding it up! The HMS Terror ship is in wonderful condition and still stands like any regular boat would.
Researchers say that if you take out all the water the HMS Terror could float. “If you could lift this boat and pump the water out, it would probably float.” says Adrian Schimnowski, Arctic Research Foundation. This means that if the boats gets the water out of it the HMS Terror could float. Just the water was holding it down, I quess. This means that it sank cause the vessel was down tight and so it sank. No water made it sink till water got in it when it went underwater. We now know that HMS Terror can float, and that there was no damage that made it
