The Titanic was keeled on March 31, 1909, about fifteen weeks later, after the sister ship Olympic had been laid down. From then on, both steamers were built at the same time and equipped with the highest level of elegance and luxury. It was planned to use both steamers in the prestigious transatlantic liner service of the White Star Line. Two years later, on May 31, 1911, the Northern Irish shipyard Harland & Wolff handed the completed Olympic over to the shipping company and the Titanic was launched on the same day at around 12:15 p.m. With a length of 269.04 m, a width of 28.19 m and a tonnage of 46,329 GRT, she surpassed all ships built until then and in 1912 was the largest ship in the world. First, Captain Edward John Smith took command of the Olympic before he switched to the Titanic for the maiden voyage. On Wednesday April 10, 1912, she set out from Southampton, narrowly avoiding a collision with the New York moored in port. The stations in Cherbourg (France) and Queenstown (Ireland) were on the way to New York (USA). The crossing went smoothly until the lookout bell sounds on Sunday (April 14, 1912) at around 11:40 p.m. (board time) due to numerous iceberg warnings. The ship touches the iceberg on the starboard side and sinks into the icy waters of the Atlantic after two hours and forty minutes. Only 712 people survived the disaster. Captain Smith went down with his ship.
