After that it smashed into the iceberg and the boiler rooms flooded.How it could have been avoided:Titanic is warned by nearby ships like the CalifornianTitanic slows to half speedCaptain closes watertight doors when iceberg spottedCrew turns the ship directly into the icebergCarpathia is morsed for CQD and SOSLifeboats are launchedOR:The ship could have also made it's way out of it, half speed with 2 compartments flooded and limping it's way to New York.
