Anything about the actual ship the Titanic?

Answer 1

The R.M.S. Titanic was the sister ship of the Olympic and the Brittanic, all three of which were owned by the White Star Line, a British shipping company. The Titanic was built at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and was known to be the grandest, largest, and most luxurious of all passenger liners of her time. Her passengers included such personalities as the Countess of Rothes Noël Leslie, Macy's department store owner Isidor Straus and his wife, Ida, White Star Line's managing director J. Bruce Ismay, Harland and Wolff shipbuilder Thomas Andrews, as well as many immigrant families hoping to start a new life in America. The ship hit an iceberg at about midnight during the late night/early morning of April 14th/April 15th 1912, and sunk at about two hours after the collision. 1,517 passengers were lost to the freezing sea. The only living Survivor is Millvina Dean, who was only two months old at the time of her passage on the Titanic. The last survivor to have actual memories of the sinking was Lillian Asplund, who was five in 1912 and died in 2006.
