The Lusitania was a British ocean liner that was sunk off the Irish coast by a German u-boat during WWI. The ship sank quickly—its submersion took only 18 minutes—and resulted in the loss of nearly 1,200 lives, among them approximately 100 children. The question of whether contraband munitions were being transported aboard the vessel when it was attacked, causing a possible secondary explosion, has been a hotly debated issue. What have dive teams recently revealed about the ship's cargo?
