The Titanic Disaster

  • The ill-fated White Star liner RMS Titanic struck an iceberg and sank on her maiden voyage across the Atlantic. Take a look at the luxury the passengers saw when they hopped on board.


  • Though billed as "unsinkable," the Titanic was no match for the icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland. News of the sensational wreck spread quickly.



  • The front page of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch of April 16, 1912, featured reports on the Titanic. The paper gives the death toll as 1302 and survivor count at 868. Later figures were 1517 dead and 706 survivors.


  • In 1985, using vehicles like the Mir 2 submersible that lights this scene, the Titanic wreckage was discovered. This shows the bow railing, which sits up on the anchor crane of the ship's foredeck.
