survive

●

The people who did manage to get on a boat were
picked up by the closet ship Carpathia.

There weren’t enough life boats for even half the crew
onboard

built for 40.

●

There was still 2 lifeboats empty when Titanic sank

board the Titanic on April 14, 1912, but it had been
cancelled

beneath the surface.

Fun Facts

Class fares cost $7 5s (equivalent to $608 today) while the
cheapest First Class fares cost $23 ($1,928 today). The most
expensive First Class suites cost up to $870 ($72,932 today) in high
season.
Third

The

Titanic originally was designed to carry 64 lifeboats. To save
from cluttering decks, the ship ended up carrying 20 on her maiden
voyage.
The

Titanic's crew failed to fire correct distress signals after
hitting the iceberg. Instead, the incorrect rocket pattern signaled to
any ship in the area: "I'm having navigation problem. Please stand
clear.“
If

the ship had hit the berg head first, Titanic probably would have
survived because of the strength of its bulkheads.

I think I did quite well on this Passion Project. I
think I deserve a fully meetings because. I stayed
on topic pretty much most of the class time I was
given. I think I could of added a bit more detail into
this project. Also I could have added a bit more
pictures.
