What I think is really amazing about this discovery is that the planes are still in good shape despite the passage of time

    Pretty incredible to think something that enormous can actually be lost for 75 years and relatively close to land.. Makes you wonder about all the other things we haven't yet found on this planet..
     
    Respect to their intentions to treat it as a war grave and actually not retrieve it...

    You would think they would be really rusted out by now.

    Wow, that is crazy. It's always so intriguing to see what they can tell so much about it even after such a long time has passed.
