–Company Captures Images of “Diana of Versailles,” Last Seen in 1986, and Discovers Significant Decay at the Ship’s Bow, Forever Altering One of History’s Most Iconic Images —

ATLANTA, Sept. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — RMS Titanic, Inc., the salvor-in-possession of the RMS Titanic, today released captivating images from its recent Imaging and Research Expedition. The findings showcase a bittersweet mix of preservation and loss. The company has shared these discoveries, both celebratory and poignant, on its website, expedition.discovertitanic.com, inviting the public to witness the ongoing story of this historic vessel.

A highlight is the re-discovery of the bronze statue “Diana of Versailles,” last seen in 1986, an artifact that most experts feared had been lost forever. This significant piece of art now has a clear, updated image thanks to the efforts of RMS Titanic, Inc.’s researcher James Penca and the Expedition’s data scientists. A more somber revelation accompanied this success: a significant section of the railing surrounding the Bow’s forecastle deck have fallen from the port side prow where it stood as recently as 2022. This alteration irrevocably changes one of Titanic’s most recognized and symbolic visuals.

“RMS Titanic, Inc. is thrilled to share the first images and remarkable discoveries from our 2024 Expedition,” said RMS Titanic, Inc. Director of Collections Tomasina Ray. “The discovery of the statue of Diana was an exciting moment. But we are saddened by the loss of the iconic Bow railing and other evidence of decay which has only strengthened our commitment to preserving Titanic’s legacy.”   

The team at RMS Titanic, Inc. spent 20 days at the wreck site using the latest technology to capture more than 2 million of the highest resolution images and video to date, while fully mapping the wreck and debris field utilizing LiDAR, sonar, and a hyper magnetometer to enhance our understanding of its historical significance. The team is now focused on carefully processing the data so findings can be shared with the Titanic and scientific communities and historically significant and at-risk artifacts can be identified for safe recovery in future expeditions.

The extraordinary work is the result of around-the-clock-operations from the Expedition team and partners including C-Innovation, Marine Imaging Technologies, 3D at Depth, Ocean Floor Geophysics, Nine North, TR Launay, Inc., and TITANIC: HONOR and GLORY.

The Expedition and its discoveries will continue to help bring Titanic to life for the millions who visit TITANIC: The Artifact Exhibition in Orlando and Las Vegas and its various touring exhibitions throughout the world. The findings will also help to inspire the next generation of explorers through the company’s community educational resources which provide schools and students materials through which they can learn valuable interdisciplinary lessons in areas such as history, science, math and technology.

About RMS Titanic, Inc.: 
As salvor in possession of the Titanic, RMS Titanic, Inc (RMST) is the only entity able to legally recover artifacts. To date, nine expeditions have honorably and respectfully been conducted to the wrecksite. In seven of those expeditions, artifacts were recovered, about 5,500 in total. Their exhibitions have been seen by over 35 million people. Learn more at DiscoverTitanic.com

EcoMatcher Unveils Tree Personas

A New Nature Interface for Engaging with Your Trees, in Any Language

HONG KONG, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — EcoMatcher, a Certified B Corporation that enables companies to plant and track trees transparently, today announced Tree Personas, a new Nature Interface designed to make tree gifting and sustainability engagement more personal, interactive, and memorable.

With Tree Personas, companies can assign a distinct digital personality to each gifted tree, enabling recipients to virtually visit their tree in TreeTracker 3D, chat with it through TreeChat+ in their own language, and learn about its growth, local environment, and real-world impact.

Tree Personas build on EcoMatcher’s earlier TreeChat, which introduced chatbot-powered conversations with trees, only in English. While TreeChat enabled interaction, Tree Personas shape how a tree communicates in any language – from curious and playful to calm and reflective – while all environmental data, location, and impact metrics remain authentic and unchanged.

EcoMatcher describes Tree Personas as a Nature Interface — a new category of digital interface that allows people to interact with real ecosystems through digital companions connected to living trees. The company believes Nature Interfaces can help reconnect people with nature in an increasingly digital world.

Rather than passively receiving information about a planted tree, users can build an ongoing relationship with it — asking questions, learning about its ecosystem, and following its growth over time. Even when users are away, Tree Personas continue to evolve digitally, encouraging people to return and discover new reflections, observations, and updates.

“Trees are essential for life on Earth, yet most people rarely have a personal connection with them,” said Bas Fransen, CEO of EcoMatcher. “Tree Personas turn planted trees into interactive companions that help people learn about nature and build deeper connections with the ecosystems that support us.”

Meet the First Tree Personas

EcoMatcher introduces three Tree Personas available to companies gifting trees, all inspired by real ecological stages and behaviours of trees:

Twiggles: A young, curious tree highlighting small discoveries in nature.Oakly: A grounded, thoughtful tree sharing ecosystems insights.Seren: A calm, reflective tree encouraging deeper connections with nature.

Companies can also collaborate with EcoMatcher to create custom Tree Personas aligned with their brand values, sustainability goals, or storytelling needs.

EcoMatcher will share more about the background and opportunities of Tree Personas during its upcoming Demo Day on April 27. To sign up, visit www.ecomatcher.com/demo.

About EcoMatcher

EcoMatcher is a Certified B Corporation that enables companies to integrate transparent tree planting into their business. Through its technology platform, organizations can plant trees, track them digitally, and engage employees and customers in sustainability. EcoMatcher’s customers include Dubai Islamic Bank, Grab, Infosys, and Singlife.
