It really is unknown what happened to Captain Smith. The person who tried to save the most lives was Thomas Andrews. Before retiring to the First Class Smoking Room, he walked up and down the ship, encouraging people to get into the life boats. He also threw chairs, and other objects overboard, as to give the passengers a better chance at survival.

How many people could go on the life boats in titanic?

The collapsible canvas boats each held 40-47 people; there were 4 collapsible boats aboard the Titanic when she sank. The full size lifeboats seated 60-65 people each, and there were 16 of those aboard the Titanic, that night. The cutters each held 35-40 people, and there were 2 cutters on the ship. It had been suggested that 48 full size boats, 2 cutters, would have been enough to save everyone aboard. This was also suggested to the owners and builders of the Titanic, by boat designers and consultants at the time Titanic was being built, but the suggestion was disregarded by the owners. Not all the boats aboard the ship left the ship with people in them; some went over the side, empty, in the panic and confusion. Not all the boats held the maximum number of people that could fit in them as they pulled away, either. That was probably partly due to panic and confusion, but also due to some people abandoning the ship to save themselves, not worrying about those left behind.

What did the RMS stand for in 'RMS Titanic'?

It stands for "Royal Mail Ship". Other people say it stands for "Royal Majesties' Ship". The RMS Titanic was indeed a Royal Mail Ship. Royal Majesties is incorrect; the only thing RMS stands for is Royal Mail Ship. Look up any history of the Titanic, and you will see that it was a mail ship. Some of the artifacts in the traveling Titanic exhibition include correspondence, bank drafts and other official papers being transported to North America.
