At time of building, Titanic was the biggest
moving object ever build. She was not only

performance. Titanic was the property of White
star corporation, based in Britain.

At noon, the Titanics huge, triple-toned
whistles blew, the visitors debarked, and the
ship steamed into the River Test. As
passengers waved goodbye from her decks and
windows the Titanic narrowly missed colliding
with the berthed liner New York, which had broken
her moorings and drifted perilously toward the
Titanic.

The Titanic left Belfast on the evening of April

Titanic was thought to be unsinkable by some,
though she was never actually advertised that way
by either Harland and Wolff or White Star. In
fact, White Star advertised Titanic and Olympic
simply as the "largest and finest steamers in the
world".

Only 688 people were rescued by the lifeboats,
but many died because of how long they had to
wait in the cold for rescuing. Only 12 people
who jumped into the water from the Titanic made
it to the lifeboats, but many did not survive.
They will always be remembered.
