Historic ocean liner SS United States sunk to become artificial reef
A majestic and all-but-indestructible 20th-century ocean liner that once ferried royal leaders, movie stars and even the 'Mona Lisa' to the United States is sunk to become the world's largest artificial reef. Experts conducted a controlled flooded sink of the 990-foot (302-meter) SS United States, a veteran of more than 800 transatlantic crossings in the 1950s and 60s, sending it to its final resting place on the Gulf of Mexico's sandy floor, some 25 miles (40 kilometers) southwest of Destin-Fort Walton Beach, Florida.
