On April 10, 1912, the RMS Titanic set sail from Southampton on her maiden voyage to New York. At that time, she was the largest and most luxurious ship ever built. At 11:40 PM on April 14, 1912, she struck an iceberg about 400 miles off Newfoundland, Canada. Although her crew had been warned about icebergs several times that evening by other ships navigating through that region, she was traveling at near top speed of about 20.5 knots when one grazed her side. \n\nLess than three hours later, the Titanic plunged to the bottom of the sea, taking more than 1500 people with her. Only a fraction of her passengers were saved. The world was stunned to learn of the fate of the unsinkable Titanic. It carried some of the richest, most powerful industrialists of her day. Together, their personal fortunes were worth $600 million in 1912! In addition to wealthy and the middle class passengers, she carried poor emigrants from Europe and the Middle East seeking economic and social freedom in the New World. \n\nThe remains of the Titanic were found in 1985 by Dr. Robert Ballard, an oceanographer and marine biologist with the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. When he located the Titanic, he saw that, as some survivors reported, the ship had broken apart. He believed the weight of the water-filled bow raised the stern out of the water and snapped the ship in two just before it sank. Debris falling out of the ship was strewn over a 1/2 mile across the sea floor. The bow and the stern were found nearly 2000ft. apart.

Extremely unlikely. A lot of time has passed, and within that time, the structure has shifted, pieces of it have collapsed and sunken, and the metal is slowly being eaten away.\n\nSurely any attempt to raise the infrastructure from the surface is going to make it collapse and break apart in numerous ways. The Titanic's remains has been erroding away steadily over the years, and eventually there won't even be much left of it.

The Titanic was 882 feet 8 inches long, 92 feet 6 inches in breadth. Her designed waterline was 34 feet, 7 inches above the keel. At that waterline the Titanic weighed 52,310 tons or 117,174,400 pounds. The Ship's hull and superstructure contained 4,632,800 cubic feet (46,328 gross tons) of space. Of that 2,183,100 cubic feet (21,831 net tons) were used to make money carrying passengers or cargo.

The opening of Fenway Park was delayed because of the sinking of the Titanic. I think the first game was suppose to be April 15 or 16, 1912.

Not many people are alive today that were at Pearl Harbor and I believe that the last survivor of the Titanic died recently.  \n\nThe first movie about the Titanic didn't come out until 1943.\n\nI think the fact that 9/11 was a terrorist attack on our own homeland soil is the reason it is such a touchy subject.

I hadn't heard that.  What on Earth could it be about?  It sunk.  End of story, right?

RMS Titanic was the second of a trio of superliners intended to dominate the transatlantic travel business.[1]Her older sister was RMS Olympic. After Titanic's sinking, her younger sister HMHS Britannic (originally RMS Gigantic) was built. Owned by the White Star Line and built at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland, United Kingdom, Titanic was the largest passenger steamship in the world at the time of her launching. During Titanic's maiden voyage (from Southampton to New York), she struck an iceberg at 11:40 PM (ship's time) on Sunday evening April 14, 1912, and sank two hours and forty minutes later at 2:20 AM Monday morning.\n\n1,523 people perished in the accident, (according to the US Senate investigation), ranking it as one of the worst peacetime maritime disasters in history and by far the most famous. Titanic's design used some of the most advanced technology available at the time and the ship was popularly believed to be "unsinkable". It was a great shock that, despite the advanced technology and experienced crew, Titanic sank with a great loss of life. The media frenzy about Titanic's famous victims, the legends about what happened on board the ship, the resulting changes to maritime law, and the discovery of the wreck in 1985 by a team led by Robert Ballard and Jean-Louis Michel have made Titanic persistently famous in the years since.

Captain Edward John Smith, RD, RNR, (January 27, 1850 – April 15, 1912) was the captain of the RMS Titanic when it sank in 1912. He and his wife, Eleanor had a daughter, Helen Melville Smith. There is a statue to his legacy in Beacon Park, Lichfield.

I bet it is. but it depends on your attitude towards it, and I'm not really 'feeling it' for these holidays. I'm more of an April 15th/14th person (Day(s) Titanic sank)

March 14th at 23:35 Universal Standard Time.\n\nI'm including a link to the US Navy site, they seem to have pretty accurate info for such things :-)  Most webpages that try to auto-calculate it get it wrong, apparently the math is rather involved and it falls down to careful measurements.
