The wreck is slowly being consumed by "rusticles" (metal-eating bacteria), reminding us that eventually, the ocean will reclaim the legend entirely.

At 2:20 AM, the Titanic broke in two. The stern hung vertical for a moment, propellers glinting in starlight, then slid under. The water temperature: 28°F (-2°C). Death came in 15 minutes—not from drowning, but from cardiac arrest caused by cold. Titanic

On Sunday night, April 14, the sea was abnormally calm and flat, making it difficult to spot icebergs because there were no breaking waves at their bases.

In the early 1900s, the transatlantic passenger trade was a fiercely competitive and profitable industry. The White Star Line, seeking to outdo its rival Cunard, which had focused on speed, decided to focus on luxury and size. The result was a plan for three magnificent Olympic-class ocean liners: the Olympic , the Titanic , and the Britannic . The ship was designed by the Belfast firm of Harland and Wolff, and construction of the Titanic began in March 1909.
