On the 14th of April 1912 the British passenger liner Titanic sank during
her first voyage across the Atlantic, after a collision with an iceberg.
The collision took place at 11:40pm and the ship went down on the 15th
of April, at 2:20am. More than 1,500 passengers and crew were lost in the
disaster; the 705 survivors were rescued during the next morning by the
US ship Carpathia.

On the 1st of September 1985 the wreckage of the Titanic was discovered at
a depth of 3960 m by the US-French team led by Robert Ballard.
