USS Monitor (1862)
Photographic mosaic of the ship's remains, composed of individual
photographs taken from the research ship Alcoa Seaprobe
in April 1974, when Monitor's wreck was initially discovered.
Monitor lies upside down, in badly damaged condition,
off Cape Hatteras, North Carolina. In this image, her bow is
to the right, with her turret displaced and visible in the lower
