New images reveal effects of slow decay of the Titanic wreck, with a section of railing on the sea floor.

The metal structure is being eaten away by microbes, creating stalactites of rust called rusticles.

A bronze statue called the Diana of Versailles has been discovered lying face up in the debris field.

Previous expeditions have found that parts of Titanic are collapsing.
