RMS Titanic

The RMS Titanic was a British passenger liner that sank in the Atlantic Ocean in 1912 after colliding with an iceberg during her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City. Billed as "unsinkable", the tragedy has been a point of fascination in the decades following, inspiring stories, documentaries, and movies about the event.
