natgeomuseumNo big deal, just National Geographic Explorer at Large Robert "Bob" Ballard discovering the RMS Titanic. On this day in 1985, Bob and his team discovered the shipwreck on the very last day of a 12-day search, and the rest made history. Now, his groundbreaking legacy in oceanography has a home at the MOE. And, his favorite cocktail has a home at his namesake bar, the Ballard Bar in Explorers Eatery. #Titanic #History #Shipwreck #NationalGeographic #Ocean
