Nobody Had Believed It Was Possible
In 1912,the Titanic hit an iceberg on its first trip across the Atlantic,and it sank four hours later.It was carrying 2207 people,but it had taken on enough lifeboats for only 1178 people.When the passengers tried to leave the ship,only 651 of them were able to get into lifeboats and 1502 people lost their lives.
Throughout the whole tragedy,the California was only ten miles away.Its officers were close enough to see the Titanic,but they did not understand the situation.They never received the Titanic’s call for help,and they did not come to the rescue until too late.
First of all,nobody had prepared for such a tragedy.Nobody had believed that the Titanic could sink.The steamship company had thought that its ship would be completely safe in all situations.They followed an old rule for the number of lifeboats,so they had supplied lifeboats for only half the people.And the passengers had not practiced lifeboat drills before the accident and they did not believe they were in danger.
The ship had already received six ice warnings on its radio when it struck the iceberg.But it had not changed its direction or its speed.It was impossible to change direction quickly enough when the iceberg came in sight.When the Titanic hit the iceberg,the radio officer on the California had just gone to bed.He had tried to warn the officers on the Titanic about the ice before he went to bed,but the officers had not listened.
After this accident,ocean travel change.Now there are always enough lifeboats for everybody.Ships do not go so far north in winter,and they watch carefully for ice.Radio officers work 24 hours a day.A tragedy like the sinking of the Titanic should never happen again.
