because the raido man on the Californian was asleep when they got the telegram
They had turned off their radio for the night.
RMS Californian
Well the ss californian was quite near but they didnt help the titanic, there was also another ship, Sampson which was two to five miles away. It ignored the titanic because it had a lot of seals on board that they had illegally been hunting.
There were 6 warnings that went to the Titanic from various ships like the Mesaba and Californian.
The Californian had attempted to send messages out warning of icebergs however, one of the radio operators was getting annoyed with the radio operator of the Californian as he was interrupting Titanics attempts at messaging Cape Race and told him to 'shut up'. The radio operator of California turned off his radio and therefore did not receive the distress call when the Titanic sent it out soon thereafter and went to bed. The Titanic had sent out distress rockets and whilst staff on the Californian did notice it they did not think it anything serious and did not follow up on it until about 5:30am - more than 3 hours after Titanic's final plunge. The SS Californian travelled through icy water (although it was said there was a more direct and clear route between their location and the titanic) to reach the location of the Titanic's sinking at about 8:30am. At that stage the Carpathia had already rescued the survivors and after communication between the ships left the Californian search the area for any other survivors. There were none to be found.
Titanic received six warnings of icebergs by telegraph and three more by signal lamp. Warning ships include: Mesaba, the Noordam, the Amerika, Caronia, Baltic, Californian, Rappahannock, and La Touraine.
What most peope consider to be ironic is that someone wrote a book a few years earlier about a ship called the Titan- and what happened to it is exactly what happened to the Titanic.
