Titanic

The RMS Titanic was a British ocean liner that sank on April 15, 1912, after colliding with an iceberg on its maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City, resulting in the deaths of 1,496 people out of an estimated 2,224 on board. The ship was the largest in the world at the time, built by the Harland and Wolff shipbuilding company in Belfast, and was designed to be unsinkable with advanced safety features such as watertight compartments and remotely activated doors. Despite having a capacity for 48 lifeboats, the ship was only equipped with 20, which could hold only about half of the passengers on board, leading to one of the deadliest peacetime maritime disasters in history.learn more on wikipedia
