What was the ship closest to the titanic?

Answer 2

The closest ship to the Titanic when it sank was the SS California but it did not respond to the Titanic's distress calls because their wireless operator was asleep and they thought that rockets were for a party. They tried to use a 4 mile Morse lamp to communicate with the Titanic but it was 10+ miles away and the Titanic could not see it.

Answer 3

the californian, but it never answered the rockets,nor the distress calls. the captain said he was asleep at that time. yet it was only ten miles away and could have easily saved just about everyone on the titanic.
