Last Photo of the RMS Titanic

Showing the Titanic afloat, 3 days before she sank, this is the last known photo of her sailing the Atlantic. Irish Jesuit priest Francis Browne took the photo after debarking at Cobh Ireland. He was going to sail with the ship to New York, her final stop, but he was ordered to return to his station by the Church - thereby avoiding the tragedy.

The iceberg that sank the unsinkable ship. This photo, taken by the Carpathian - the ship that picked up the survivors - is of the iceberg. It was taken the next day.

John Edward Smith, born January 27th, 1850 went down with his ship. Considered by some as much of a culprit as the iceberg, others hail him as a hero.

The Titanic was full of elegant amenities for the wealthy: dining rooms, a fully equipped gym, large suites, and more.

In 1912, newspapers published special editions with breaking news.

April 18 1912 in New York, Pier 54 - people waiting for the survivors of the ship to arrive at port. The crowds became much larger as time went by.

One of the most famous of the survivors, Margaret Tobin Brown became known as the "unsinkable Molly Brown".

Whole families, like this one, did not survive. The baby's body was never found.

Children went down with the ship.
