The Ship of Dreams That Came True
It was in the spring of April, on a calm, still, moonless night, that the great Titanic, on her maiden voyage to New York in 1912, sped across the quiet North Atlantic into a massive barricade of ice. Suddenly, almost silently, an iceberg scraped her starboard side. And within three hours, the inmense luxurious Titanic had dissapear beneath the coal and deep ocean, carrying 1,523 passengers and crew members, millionaires and emigrants, men, women and children to their freezing deaths.
The tragic loss of the Titanic, the greatest ship that an era would seen, was proof, once more, of the dangers of the North Atlantic passage-perils that the Titanic, overconfidently had been designed for.
Nearly fifteen thousand yardworkers were employed to built he Titanic and his twin sister The Olympic.
The largest moving objects ever built.
WeŽll take a stroll aboard the most luxurious ship, The R.M.S. TITANIC.
