National Titanic Remembrance Day
National Titanic Remembrance Day, April 15th, commemorates the lives of those who were lost when the Titanic sank into the North Atlantic's icy waters in 1912. We honor the more than 1,500 people who died on that day.
On her maiden voyage from England to New York City, the Titanic, nicknamed "the unsinkable ship," crashed an iceberg at 11:40 p.m. on April 14, 1912. The Titanic, nicknamed "the unsinkable ship," crashed an iceberg. The Titanic sank later, in the icy waters of the Atlantic Ocean, on April 15. Many that died were mainly due to a lack of lifeboats onboard the ship.
Since that time, journalists, engineers, ocean explorers, historian, survivors, and descendants of those who have been missing have been trying to piece together the events leading up to that night. Countless hours of documentation, rescue expeditions, and interviews are among those involved's accounts. Every angle and myth has been considered from the investors to the architects, the engineers, and the sailers, right down to the communications and those left behind. No matter where you start, it's still is a tragic and enthralling tale.
