The SS Great Eastern, designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, cost approximately £1.5 million to build in the mid-19th century, which was an astronomical sum at the time. Construction began in 1854 and was completed in 1858. The ship was intended for transatlantic travel and could carry large numbers of passengers and cargo, but it faced numerous challenges and was not commercially successful.
