It was speculated that after the ship broke apart, the bow was attached to the stern for a few moments, which caused it to rise vertically. After breaking off, the stern then floated in that position for a few minutes before sinking.

How did titanic's stern section sink?

After splitting in two, Titanic's water-filled bow and relatively buoyant stern were still connected by a section of keel plating. As the bow was pulled under, it pulled the stern upward, and finally detached. The stern was held up by the immense weight of its engines, and remained vertical for about a minute before slowly filling with water and sinking.

Who were the telegraphist on the Titanic?

The titanics telegraph was in the wheeling area on the boat deck. There were five of them. (order from right to left).The first one sent messages to the reciprocating engines.The handles were not connected the were separated to indicate port and starboard directions.The second one was used to send messages from the stern to wheeling area because in the wheeling area you could not see all the way to the bottom.The third one was for emergency's.This one is different because it tell the enginers to do the direction faster.The fourth one was for docking.This is the second hardest because docking is very hard for a ship like the titanic.And there was also a docking telegraph on the stern so someone on the stern can give direction on where to go.The last one is another one that sent messages to the reciprocating engines.
