Why didn't the titanic have red distress rockets?
The red vs. white thing is probably a simplification invented for the purpose of James Cameron's movie. According to the regulations in effect at the time of Titanic's disaster, the color of the rockets did not matter. What mattered was that they should have been fired one at time, at "short intervals", to produce a visual distress signal. Another way was to fire a gun or other explosive material in one minute intervals, thus generating a sound distress signal. The rockets used on Titanic produced both banging sound and a visual effect, so they could have been used both ways. One of the theories is that the Titanic's crew did not know these regulations and fired rockets in some random intervals, possibly confusing captain Lord on the Californian.
