The Californian was in the water nearby but they'd shut their radios off and had stopped for the night because of the iceberg warnings. The Carpathia was further away but had their radios on and responded to Titanic's distress calls, arriving the morning after the sinking. The Californian also assisted with rescue in the morning after their radios had been turned back on and they could hear the radio traffic from the Carpathia.

What was the californian in the story Titanic?
The California was the closest ship to Titanic when she sank. They did not respond to the Titanic calls of distress because the wireless operator on the California was asleep because he was the only operator on board and had been working since dawn on the 14th. Another reason the California is important is because of the unusual circumstances surrounding the California. It was transporting an unknown cargo and some of her crew had only a week to prepare including the wireless operator who took the wrong chart with him and so did not know what ship they could see in the distance. If he had the chart then it would have told him that it was the Titanic and they might had made more of an attempt to contact her.

Most vessels within range of her powerful wireless did receive it, but were unable to make it to the scene in time before she went down. The one vessel that did not receive the SOS signsl was the small British liner Californian, the reasons for this being that she was stuck in pack ice and also the wireless operator was not on duty to hear her distress calls. The Californian was only 10 miles distant from Titanic and the Board of Enquiry after the disaster heavily criticised her captain for not having taken adequate measures to respond to any nearby vessels that were in distress.

Carpathia did. It was 58 miles away at the time, so it couldn't get there in time to rescue everyone, but it did respond to distress calls and alter its course to find the survivors.

It was simply a case of bad luck.
