The Titanic sank during its maiden voyage across the Atlantic on April 15, 1912. The luxury British ocean liner, considered unsinkable, struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic, leading to one of the worst maritime disasters in history. Tragically, about 1,500 of the 2,224 passengers and crew lost their lives. The incident sparked significant changes in maritime safety regulations, including lifeboat requirements and the establishment of the International Ice Patrol. The Titanic remains a symbol of human technological ambition and the catastrophic consequences of overconfidence in engineering, leaving an indelible mark on maritime history.
