"I cannot envision any condition which would cause a ship to creator. I cannot conceive of any vital disaster happening to this vessel." (Captain Edward J. Smith) Just before midnight on April 14, 1912, the RMS Titanic, the major ship on the planet, strike an iceberg, starting a chain of events that would in the end make it history's most well-known and notorious ship. In the over a century since it sank on its maiden voyage, the Titanic has been the main topic of countless fascination, as evidenced by the initiatives to find its last resting area, the museums full of its objects, and the many catalogs, documentaries, and films made about the doomed ocean liner. Because of the dramatization of the Titanic's sinking and the undying desire for the story, a huge number of people are aware of various areas of the ship's demise and the practically 1,500 people who passed away in the North Atlantic in the first morning hours of April 15, 1912. The sinking of the ship is still practically as questionable now as it was over a century back, and the theatre is merely as compelling. The Titanic was neither the first nor the previous big ship to sink, so it's clear that a lot of its appeal is due to the type of the ship itself. Indeed the Titanic sticks out not just because of its end but also for its starting, specifically the fact that it was the most luxurious traveler ship ever built at that time. As well as the time it had taken to come up with the design, the giant ship took a full three years to construct, and no effort or cost was spared to clothing the Titanic in the most lavish ways.
