Name : RMS Titanic
Route : Southampton to New York City
Maiden Voyage : 10 April 1912
Fate : Sank on 15 April 1912 after hitting an iceberg
Class & Type : Olympic-class ocean liner
Story : Titanic began her maiden voyage with Captain Edward J.Smith in command.Shortly before midnight on 14 April 1912, four days into the ship's maiden voyage,Titanic hit an iceberg and sank two hours and forty minutes later, early on 15 April 1912. The high casualty rate was due in part to the fact that, the ship did not carry enough lifeboats for everyone aboard. A disproportionate number of men died due to thewomen-and-children first protocol that was followed.

---------------------------------------------------


On the night of Sunday, 14 April 1912, the temperature had dropped to near freezing.While sailing, looksout spotted a large iceberg directly ahead of the ship. First Officer gave the order for an abrupt turn to port adjusted the engines The iceberg brushed the ship's starboard side (right side), buckling the hull in several places.Captain Smith, alerted by the jolt of the impact,arrived on the bridge and ordered a full stop.Shortly after midnight on 15 April, following an inspection by the ship's officers, the lifeboats were ordered to be readied and a distress call was sent out.Several ships responded, including Titanic's sister ship, Olympic, but none was close enough to make it in time. The closest ship to respond was Carpathia 58 miles (93 km) away, which could arrive in an estimated four hours—too late to rescue all of Titanic's passengers.



Most famous stories of Titanic, Titanic's eight-member band, had assembled in the first-class lounge in an effort to keep passengers calm and upbeat. Later they moved on to the forward half of the boat deck. The band continued playing, even when it became apparent the ship was going to sink, and all members perished.



Around 02:10, the stern rose out of the water exposing the propellers, and by 02:17 the waterline had reached the boat deck.Shortly afterwards, the forward funnel collapsed, crushing part of the bridge and people in the water.The ship's stern slowly rose into the air, and everything unsecured crashed towards the water. The electrical system finally failed and the lights went out. The stress on the hull caused Titanic to break apart between the last two funnels, and the bow went completely under. The stern righted itself slightly and then rose vertically. After a few moments, this too sank into the ocean.



Only two of the 18 launched lifeboats rescued people after the ship sank.There were some arguments in some of the other lifeboats about going back, but many survivors were afraid of being swamped by people trying to climb into the lifeboat or being pulled down by the suction from the sinking Titanic.After steaming under a forced draft for just under four hours, the RMS Carpathia arrived in the area and at 04:10 began rescuing survivors..........






The Titanic used some of the most advanced technology available at the time and was popularly believed to have been described as "unsinkable."It was a great shock to many that, despite the extensive safety features and experienced crew, the Titanic sank.
