The tragic tale of the world’s most famous shipwreck…

On April 10, 1912, the excitement and anticipation on the streets of Southampton was palpable. It was on that day, some 112 years ago, that the RMS Titanic was launched. Little did anyone know that, within just a few days, these emotions would turn to distress, fear and devastation, as the news reached England that the ‘unsinkable’ Titanic lay upon the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, along with hundreds of its passengers and crew.

Built in Belfast, Ireland, for the White Star Line, the Titanic was launched in May 1911. The largest ship in the world, representing the height of luxury and innovation, the Titanic left Belfast and headed for Southampton, England to commence its ‘Maiden Voyage’. With well over 2,000 passengers and crew aboard, and with the halls of the ship filled dreams of new beginnings, thoughts of returning to loved ones and the celebration of newlyweds, the Titanic pulled away from Southampton on April 10 1912 to begin its first and, as it transpired, final, fatal journey.

At 11.40pm, April 14 1912, the believed invincible Titanic struck an iceberg. Two hours and 40 minutes later, the giant ship sank beneath the waves, taking more than 1,500 people to a watery grave. Whilst the Titanic carried more lifeboats than was required by the British Board of Trade Regulations, it only had half the number of boats needed to save the lives of everyone on board. A mere 31.7% of the estimated 2,224 passengers on board this floating palace survived.

One of the most renowned events in history, the sinking of the Titanic has captivated global audiences since the day she went down – with locating the wreck an endlessly tantalising goal. Many plans to find the wreck of the Titanic were hatched, but none came to fruition, until the doomed ship was located in 1985 by a French-American team originally trying to find two Cold War submarines.

With the discovery of the Titanic’s resting place, 3,800 metres below the waterline, and about 700mm off the coast of Newfoundland, so began a new chapter in one of the most intriguing, most compelling, most tragic stories of modern history.
