- The Titanic was sailing from England to America. The ship was sailing
happily and saw an iceberg that seemed small from far ahead, when
actually it was huge under the water.

- It happened in the Atlantic Ocean far away from the coast, so far away
that the Californian that was sailing close could not even tell they
were sinking.

- They were sailing and saw an iceberg ahead and thought that they could
pass it without any damage. But that wasn’t true. When they crashed it
seemed like there was little damage, but they went down stairs to the
hull it was flooding with water.

- 1,517 people were unfortunately killed, but there was little property
damage. The most damage was the crack down the middle of the ship. It
sunk gracefully, barley moving anything, but killed many.

- Yes, it could have been prevented because on April 14th the
Titanic received 5 messages about ice in the area but they paid no
attention. If they had paid
attention 1517 would not have been killed.

- After the disaster scuba-divers found where the Titanic sunk and they
found unbroken china, and a
soaked china doll. They couldn’t rebuild the ship. After the disaster , since it was long
ago, they have invented more tracking and more communication tools.
