The Titanic in Belfast
The Titanic itself was also built in Belfast at the Harland and Wolff
shipyard.The Titanic quarter in Belfast is a large building in
Belfast and the company that built it was called the White Star
Line.
Harland and Wolff
Harland and Wolff is a very well known company
That built the Titanic.This company has built ships that are luxury liners
and Warships.The company is named after Edward J. Harland and
Gustav W. Wolff, who founded the yard in 1858.
The white star line
The white star line is a British company.They were the company that
built RMS Titanic and its sister ship Britannic.The white star line
were founded in Liverpool in 1845.
About the ship
Titanic held some of the wealthiest people in the world. On the 14th
April 4days into its maiden voyage Titanic hit an ice berg. By 2:20am
Titanic broke apart and floundered ,with over one thousand people still
onboard. Carpathia arrived on the scene of the sinking, where she
brought aboard an estimated 705 survivors.
Setting sail
The route the Titanic took was to set sail in Belfast and go to
Southampton shortly after midnight. Then they left Southampton
and arrived at Cherbourg. From there the ship arrived at Queens
town County Cork. When it left Queens town they were supposed to
go to New York City.But they hit an ice-burg and it sank.
The captain
The captain of the titanic was called captain Edward Smith.He was
Born on January 27th 1850, in Hanley. On the night the Titanic sank the
captain went to bed because he was upset.He died on the 15 April
1912 in the Atlantic Ocean and died while the Titanic was sinking. He
was aged 62.
Danger-ice
It was dark at night when the Titanic came across ICE. While it was trying to turn
it crashed into the side of the boat and water began to fill up inside the
Titanic.When the water finally got in all the air compartments it eventually started
to float up and broke in half.While all this was in progress the killer ice-burg
was floating peacefully at the top of the water.
Disaster strikes
Titanic was in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and was estimated to have
2,224 people on board. The Titanic hit an ice burg at 23:40pm on Sunday
14th April 1912.Two hours later at 02:20 on Monday 15th April it sank. After
the Carpathia rescued the Titanic with the survivors and became famous.The
Carpathia was in World War One and was sunk in the Antlantic Ocean.
Life Boats
There were only 20 life boats on the Titanic. All 20 lifeboats
were used between 12:40–2:10 am. There were 2,223 people
on board. The Titanic could only take 1,178 people, even
though there were about 2,223 on board.
The death toll
There were more than 1,500 people that died on the Titanic. Titanic
now lies at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. There were 360 first
class passengers. There were a total of 305 second class
passengers,800 third class passengers and 903 crew and
stewards.
The Aftermath
The Titanic was known as one of the greatest disasters in modern
times.John Jacob Astor was the richest man on the ship.He too
went to his death with an unborn baby. The Carpathia
Rescued the survivors on the Titanic.
Legacy
Titanic’s survivors arrived in New York at around 8:00 PM on April 18th,1912,
almost three days after sinking of the Titanic.It was obvious that very few 3rd class
passengers survived because they where at the bottom of the ship and couldn't
get to the top.After the Titanic sank people went down searching for it right
away.They couldn't find it because the technology wasn't as good in those days.
