History

In the 2010s, diver Daryl Christofi, after retrieving the artefacts from the sunken steam freighter Elysium, loaned out said artefacts (including pottery) to the touring exhibition about the history of the sunken ship and its eventual crash.

Behind the scenes

• The touring exhibition was an important part of the immersive experience The Crash of the Elysium; in the marketing, the experience was advertised as a genuine historical exhibit about this fictional ship, and the beginning of the experience was even set in the exhibition, until the guests were led to the rest of the locations within the hour long runtime.
  • However, despite being a prominent part of the marketing, the interior of the exhibition was never shown until 8 July 2012, the final day of the immersive experience. Its name is also, clearly, "The Crash of the Elysium".
• The tie-in website North West Historical Society was launched as part of the marketing of The Crash of the Elysium, about a fictional society whose current project was to research the Elysium. It is current unclear if they have any in-universe association or connection to this exhibition.

The exhibition, titled "The Crash of the Elysium", was hosted either in Manchester 2011 or Ipswich 2012, depending on the variation of the source, and it contained many artefacts from the ship. After a group of humans entered, the curator Willard talked about the Elysium and presented a slideshow of old photographs of the steamer. However, after a spaceship — curiously also named the Elysium — crashed outside, the humans were escorted out by the army and recruited into exploring the ship.
