BOSTON (CNN) -- You've seen the movie and heard the song. Now, you can go to an exhibit in Boston to see a piece of the Titanic itself.
A 23- by 14-foot, 20-ton section of the doomed ship's hull arrived in Boston Friday morning, after being plucked from the floor of the Atlantic about 10 miles from the rest of the Titanic wreck site.
It will be the centerpiece of a traveling Titanic exhibit, which is now at the World Trade Center in Boston.
The Titanic broke apart and sank in 1912 after colliding with an iceberg off the coast of Newfoundland.
