The Miking Of The Titanic

The Titanic tragedy was not a very happy event, but I am here to share my opinion on the causes of the sinking of it.

The British luxury passenger ship, The Titanic, set sail on April 10, 1912, en route to New York City from Southampton (Lord ch 1). During her maiden voyage, midnight of April 15, 1912, she began to sink (ch 1). The Titanic had a collision with an iceberg that was around 100 feet tall (“Titanic: 40 Fascinating Facts” 3). Regardless to how greatly manufactured the Titanic was, and with beliefs that she was unsinkable, the miscalculation of human error proves that every possible outcome cannot be prevented, disasters can still occur regardless of careful planning.

The Titanic was a ship that sunk during its maiden voyage in 1912. This big ship was on it’s way to New York when it struck an iceberg. It was believed to be “unsinkable” but that night it met it’s fate and sunk killing many passengers. As the story goes they say it’s the icebergs fault for the sinking of the ship. When in reality, the White Star Line was truly at fault for the sinking of the Titanic. They are responsible for this tragedy because they went full speed after ignoring six ice warnings. Not only that but they should've thought of the consequences when they decided to take off lifeboats for more room for luxury items. Then they weren’t prepared and never had any drills or safety procedures for if the ship were to sink.

Most people thought that the Titanic was unsinkable, but they couldn’t have been any further from the truth. The Titanic’s maiden voyage in the early 1900s was cut short due to a collision with an iceberg. The Titanic was a tragic event that helped change sailing for years to come because of the massive casualties and the sinking of an unsinkable ship.

Many people called the Titanic unsinkable because the ship was so big, expensive, and took three years of hard work to build, A large number of people believed the Titanic couldn't sink, “My mother said to my father, Isn’t that the ship that they say is unsinkable? And he said, No, this is the ship that is unsinkable” (C.Q.D. THIS IS TITANIC). People who bought a Titanic ticket were most likely very rich, and thought the Titanic was a safe and sturdy ship. The Titanic was called the unsinkable ship, yet it sank on its very first voyage. When the beautiful ship sank, it became a marvelous and intriguing story in this world today. The sinking of the Titanic was not expected, which is why trouble came once passengers knew the boat was going down. There were not enough lifeboats for everyone who boarded the Titanic, and no one was ready for this disaster to occur. The Titanic was jinxed when people said it was an unsinkable ship. Furthermore, when the Titanic was in the midst of sinking it communicated with many other ships, but all were very far away, except for the Californian, and “Unbelievably, the Titanic’s crew could even see the Californian in the distance, but were unable to contact the other ship despite their repeated

My first reason is, the Titanic was going to fast. In the article I read 10 causes of the “Titanic Tragedy” it stated “ Many Titanic Ologists have said that the ship's captain, Edward J. Smith, was aiming to better the crossing time of the Olympic.”

April 15, 1912 the “unsinkable” Titanic had almost three hours before it was no longer afloat, but plunged to the bottom of the North Atlantic Ocean. Blueprints, journal & logs, and tons of witnesses were thoroughly inspected over the past 100 years to help solve the question agonizing question, why. For the 100-year remembrance of the tragic event, Smithsonian Channel released a documentary, Titanic’s Final Mystery. Dedicated Titanic detective and historian, Tim Maltin releases his theory on how the “unsinkable” sank.

It is common knowledge that the Titanic struck an iceberg, but what is less considered is the fact that the ship need not have sunk at all. On the last night of the Titanic’s voyage, her radio operator received a transmission from the Californian warning about icebergs, but the operator payed no attention. Moreover, the Caronia also warned the Titanic’s captain about icebergs and field ice before this.

The Wrong Version of “Titanic” David K. Slavitt’s poem “ Titanic” explains the way most of the people look at the tragic event occurred in April 14, 1912. The poem uses a lot of sarcasm to portray its message describing how people would’ve bought the tickets for the ship even if they would’ve known that it was going to sink. With this poem, Slavitt’s work not only focuses on the sinking of the Titanic, but also on the impact it had on people and makes the reader think about the way most of the people look at the event based on movies and stories, which don’t show things as they happened.

Drain the ocean to revill lost ships, the Titanic. What happened here, what went wrong? Why did the stern of the ship tore apart when the bow of the ship looks fine but damaged by impact on the seafloor. Since the bow of the ship was aerodynamic it sliced through the water and impacted the seafloor while the stern of the ship tore apart. Titanic is a relic in the ocean on the seafloor. The wreck site of the two halfs of the ship gives us information, details, and data of how, when, and why it hit the seafloor the way it did. Evidence of the wreck site is giving us data of what really happened and how this happened. We know that when the stern tilted up out of the water as she sank, it is believed that this created immense stress tearing the ship completely in two.

They think that the iceberg was the main reason that a lot of people died. If you look back that it you can see that there was more to do to a lot of people dieing then the iceberg. During the time of the Titanic.

People were shocked at the news of the "unsinkable" Titanic sinking and this disbelief was due to the 19th Century’s reliance on science and industry to solve problems. When people set eyes on the most luxurious and biggest ship ever, they easily presumed it unsinkable. The Titanic, along with it’s size, had watertight

As a result, the Olympics’ insurers refused to pay off the damages from the accident. Paying for the necessary repairs would be ruinously expensive, possibly bankrupting the White Star Line business which was already operating on uncertain and increasingly tight profit margins. Given that this company was potentially on its last breath it could be plausible that they opted to do something extraordinarily scandalous in an attempt to stay afloat. The theory behind the Titanic’s sinking is that the two ships were swapped out while they were both docked next to one another for a week. Then the Olympic was purposely sunk to alleviate any financial accountability while the actual Titanic continued to make profit disguised as a repaired Olympic.

John Dewey’s concept of a “public,” (sic) as a group of individuals who together are affected by a particular action or idea, which was introduced in his The Public and Its Problems, is not dead. This definition is vague and broad enough that it is adaptable to societal changes. The variety and sheer volume of the “public” has grown exponentially with the changes in technology and transportation. These changes have eliminated boundaries and made the transmission and receipt of information almost instantaneously. Kruckeberg and Tsetsura (2004) asked: “is today’s communication “revolution” more accurately a “reformation” in which each person can be his or her own journalist within a global milieu of interactive multimedia?” (p. 85) Comparing the reporting on two historical tragic events illustrates the answer to this question.

When analyzing this disaster the first thing to consider is the engineer’s design of the Titanic. The Titanic was employing many new and innovative designs that were believed to make the Titanic the safest ship ever built at that time. The engineer’s of the vessel made claims that the Titanic was “unsinkable” and that “even in the worst possible accident at sea, the ship should have stayed afloat for two to three days.” One of the features that lead them to this claim was the 16 watertight compartments in the hull of the ship. The way they were designed allowed for up to four compartments to be breached and they ship would still carry
