The RMS Titanic was one of the largest and most luxurious ships ever built when it set sail on April 10, 1912.
The Ship of Dreams
The Titanic was called "unsinkable" because of its advanced safety features. It was 882 feet long — almost as long as three football fields! Over 2,200 passengers and crew were on board for its maiden voyage from Southampton, England to New York City.
The Fateful Night
On the night of April 14, 1912, the Titanic struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean. The ship sank in less than three hours, and more than 1,500 people lost their lives.
Heroes of the Titanic
But amidst the tragedy, there were countless acts of heroism and kindness. Musicians played to keep passengers calm. Crew members helped women and children into lifeboats. Strangers comforted each other in the darkness.
