Information about the original:
The keel of the Titanic was laid on March 31, 1909, at the Harland & Wolff shipyards in Northern Ireland, and two years later, on May 31, 1911, the steamship was launched for the first time. Commissioned by the famous transatlantic shipping company White Star Line, it featured only the most elegant and luxurious amenities. In 1912, the Titanic—with a length of 269.04 m, a width of 28.19 m, and a tonnage of 46,320 BRT—was the largest ship in the world. Captain Edward John Smith transferred from the Titanic’s sister ship, the Olympic, to the Titanic specifically for its maiden voyage. The ship set sail from Southampton on Wednesday, April 10, 1912, and was scheduled to make stops in Cherbourg, France, and Queenstown, Ireland, on its way to New York, USA. The voyage proceeded without incident until, following a series of warnings about icebergs, the bell in the watchtower rang on Sunday, April 14, 1912, about a quarter of an hour before midnight. The Titanic then struck an iceberg on its starboard side and, after two hours and forty minutes, sank into the icy waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Only 712 passengers survived the disaster.
