titanic hit the icebag.
It took the Titanic a little less than three hours.But, it took the Titanic three years to build.
The Titanic sinking took place on April 15, 1912. Subtract today's year from 1912 and you will get your answer as to how old Titanic is.
Survivors of the Titanic's sinking were taken aboard the Carpathia, which arrived at the Port of New York, NY, April 18, 1912.
No ship was bigger when Titanic took to the sea - but the size she had been, at the time of the sinking, was surpassed by Der Imperator.
Yes, Bruce J. Ismay did survive the titanic. He managed to hop into"Collapsible C" as it was being lowered. After the Titanic sinking, hewas called a "Coward" because he took a spot on the lifeboat(He took some one else' life by stealing that seat)
The Carpathia was actually on its way to the Titanic wreck site but since they're full speed ahead was only half of the Titanic's maximum speed, it took them 4 hours to reach the Titanic wreck site, which was 1 hour 20 minutes after the sinking.
The buoyancy of Titanic, and other large vessels, is a carefully calculated amalgam of air, solid materials (wood or metal) and ballast. Thomas Andrews, who took courses in naval engineering understood this and correctly predicted Titanic's sinking.
Started sinking a bit before midnight, and took 2 hrs and 48mins to sink, putting time at about 2:48am in the morning
There is plenty of blame to go around for the sinking of the Titanic, although Bruce Ismay probably could have prevented it if he had taken the danger seriously. As for the deaths, most of them were caused by the coldness of the water and not enough lifeboats, yet the Titanic actually had more lifeboats than the law required at the time. A study of this disaster reveals many chances to avoid it, but it took the sinking of the ship before these chances were noted and the faults corrected.
The Sinking of The Titanic on April 14 &15, 1912.
The Carpathia was the ship that came to the rescue of the survivors of the Titanic. The SS Californian, however, was the closest ship to the Titanic at the time of its sinking. It did not respond to distress calls made from the Titanic.
it took three years for the titanic to be constructed
