The December issue of National Geographic magazine is out, and on page 96, is Dr Ballard's surprisingly short artcle "Grave Site Or Gold Mine?" can be found.
Visually the article is impressive, with a large foldout of the new wreck mosaic, but all the photos in the article are to be found in the new book.(i.e no new pictures)
There is an interesting artists rendering of what the profile of the wreck might look like by 2112..
And there is a crystal clear photograph of Capt. Smith's bathtub-
As for the text, Ballard attacked all past expeditions he was not a part of of having damaged the wreck in some way...
Perhaps Dr Ballard has forgotten that he set the Alvin down on Titanic's deck on more than one occasion......
Oddly enough Titanic is not on the cover of this issue-but rather there is a picture of planetoids....
