Yet this tragic disaster improved safety for future ships. How? The sinking of the Titanic during the night of April 14, 1912 and the early morning of April 15, 1912, was a tragic disaster. This was truly the first global disaster for mankind, with passengers from North and South America, Europe, Asia, Australia, and Africa. Dan Bender said,” [as of 2010] Everyone has heard about the ‘unsinkable’ RMS Titanic, but 98 years removed, we have little connection to the disaster other than watching a movie or documentary.…
collected over 5,500 artifacts from the legendary ship. Anything and everything that could be taken from china dishes all the way to bank notes was taken. Everything from the Titanic would be valuable. A cracker from a survival kit was sold at auction for twenty-three thousand while the last first class lunch menu was sold for eighty-eight thousand dollars. Ballard was not pleased with the outcome knowing that this was not only a historical figure, but a sacred gravesite.…
On April 15, 1912, one of the worst calamities struck America. The ship that deemed "unsinkable" sank on its maiden voyage from Southampton, UK to New York, US due to scraping an iceberg. Because of this contretemps, 1,517 people, including the crew, captain, and many helpless children, died. Not only was this an example of America's broad and explicit ambitions, but also of how imperfections can be fatal. Unfortunately, there is not merely one person to blame.…
Part of the reason it hasn’t happened again, is due to the fact that we have seen what the after effects are. Humans learn from their mistakes. The Titanic, for example, propelled regulations about sailing, and shipbuilding forward after the tragedy that killed over a thousand people. Even if we do learn from our mistakes, what’s stopping us from repeating the mistakes of the past?…
In this writing i'm going to tell you what i think about this. I agree and disagree, first i'm going to tell you why i agree that artifacts should be taken up. There should be a plan with professionals and scientist to go to take artifacts up from the Titanic. Once they got the artifacts up, they build a special museum just for the Titanic’s artifacts. It should be a place about history of the Titanic with real artifacts.…
How the Titanic Communicated The tragic event of the Titanic may have raised many questions. How was the Titanic able to get in contact with other ships? Many people might already know, but the radio that was put in the Titanic was not the best of the technology that was available at that time. The radio installed in the Titanic could have been more efficient, contacted more ships faster, and saved more lives than what it already did.…
The R.M.S. Titanic April 12, 1912 at 12:00 the so called “Unsinkable R.M.S Titanic” is now 12,500 feet down resting on the floor of the Atlantic Ocean. There were 2,208 people boarding on the ship but only 706 people survived, that is only 706 people who actually came back to their beloved home. Who is actually responsible for her first and last voyage? Without a doubt Historians believe that one reason that the Titanic sank was because of human error. Historians on www.historians.net blame Captain Edward J. Smith, the radio operators, and the crew on the Californian for the R.M.S. Titanic’s sinking.…

I think the Titanic should be preserved. The reasons why I think this is: it would bring lots of tourism, educate students, and provide investigation and exploration. I think the Titanic should be preserved because it brings lots of tourism. One example would be hotels and restaurants in the area of the museum would spike in business. Also the museum where the Titanic would be kept would get a lot of business and ultimately bring in more revenue.…
Over the course of history, millions of disasters have occurred, both big and small; but few have impacted the world like the sinking of the RMS Titanic. Even before it launched the Titanic became famous for its pure opulence and was branded “unsinkable.” Sadly its glory was short lived as not far into the first voyage it sank. This disaster sprung from a seemingly random chain of events and showed many problems with how White Star Line treated the different classes of people. In the aftermath safety conventions were held and regulations were changed.…
Some people may think the Titanic should be brought up to the surface. I believe the Titanic shouldn't be brought up. It's already falling apart, if we tried to bring it up it would most likely get destroyed in the process. It's basically a gravesite for over 1,000 people, so moving it would be like digging up a grave. Plus, it would cost thousands, perhaps millions to bring it up.…

Preserved and remembered or left and forgotten? Everyone can come and learn about the tragedy of the Titanic. The Titanic can become a monument. Even though it will cost millions of dollars all of the money will eventually be paid back. I think the Titanic should be preserved so people can learn about the history of the Titanic.…

Ever since I saw the movie “Titanic” when I was seven years old I’ve always been interested in the Titanic and how such a tragedy could have happened to a ship that was supposedly unsinkable. IV. (Preview Statement) I would like to inform you about the Titanic, her reputation of being the safest ship ever built because she was apparently unsinkable. Next, I will discuss how the…
