Titanic's Wreck, April 14 & 15, 1912

Sinking of the Titanic, april 14 & 15

Naufrage du Titanic - Nearer, My God, To Thee par bhgbjazz
Le Titanic est un paquebot transatlantique de la White Star Line (Grande-Bretagne) construit en 1909 et lancé le 31 mai 1911. Long de 269 mètres hors tout, large de 29 mètres et haut de 30 mètres hors cheminées, il présentait, hormis sa taille, deux caractéristiques qui contribuèrent à faire entrer son malheureux destin dans l'histoire : d'une part, son luxe, avec des aménagements extraordinaires comme quatre salles à manger prestigieuses, un théâtre, un court de tennis, un mini-golf, etc., et, d'autre part, sa conception révolutionnaire avec une coque à double fond et une série de compartiments étanches qui rendaient théoriquement le navire insubmersible.
titanic.jpg
Le 10 avril 1912, le Titanic quitte l'Angleterre pour son voyage inaugural vers New York, avec 2 201 personnes à bord, dont 885 membres d'équipage. Le soir du 14 avril, le paquebot heurte un iceberg qui racle sa coque sur une centaine de mètres. Moins d'une heure plus tard, il parut évident que les entrées d'eau étaient importantes, que les différents compartiments n'étaient pas étanches et que le bateau prenait du gîte. Le Titanic comportait seulement vingt canots de sauvetage pouvant emporter environ 1 200 personnes. Les premières embarcations s'éloignent à moitié remplies, beaucoup de passagers se refusant à accepter l'inconcevable : le Titanic est en train de couler. Le 15 avril, à 2 h 20 minutes, les chaudières explosent et le navire se dresse à la verticale avant de plonger dans l'océan, où il repose depuis lors par 3 850 mètres de profondeur, à 275 kilomètres au sud-est de Terre-Neuve. À 4 heures du matin, le Carpathia, qui s'était porté au secours du Titanic, rejoignait les canots en perdition et sauvait les 711 survivants du naufrage. Lors de cette catastrophe sans précédent périrent 52 enfants, 109 femmes et 1 329 hommes.
titanic021.jpg
En plein essor industriel, alors que la société vouait une confiance aveugle à une technologie qu'elle croyait infaillible, le naufrage du Titanic eut l'effet d'un électrochoc vis-à-vis du risque technologique, prise de conscience qui devait s'affirmer et mûrir au cours des décennies suivantes.
Titanic Lights
En septembre 1985, une équipe franco-américaine localisa l'épave et, en 1986, à l'aide d'un petit sous-marin équipé d'un robot télécommandé, rapporta des milliers de photographies qui firent le tour du monde. Deux autres expéditions eurent lieu : une en 1987, qui permit de remonter 1 800 objets dont un certain nombre furent restitués aux familles ; une autre en 1996 effectuée par le submersible français le Nautile, qui visita l'« insubmersible » et le dépouilla un peu plus. Reste toujours à récupérer, entre autres, le coffre du Titanic qui contiendrait pour 300 millions de dollars de bijoux. d'après Yves Gautier

Avec le film de James Cameron, le naufrage du Titanic a pris la dimension d'une légende.

The RMS Titanic was an Olympic-class passenger liner owned by British shipping company White Star Line and built at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland. At the time of her construction, she was the largest passenger steamship in the world.

Shortly before midnight on 14 April 1912, four days into the ship's maiden voyage, Titanic hit an iceberg and sank two hours and forty minutes later, early on 15 April 1912. The sinking resulted in the deaths of 1,517 of the 2,223 people on board, making it one of the deadliest peacetime maritime disasters in history. The high casualty rate was due in part to the fact that, although complying with the regulations of the time, the ship did not carry enough lifeboats for everyone aboard. The ship had a total lifeboat capacity of 1,178 people, although her maximum capacity was 3,547. A disproportionate number of men died due to the women-and-children-first protocol that was followed.

The Titanic was designed by some of the most experienced engineers, and used some of the most advanced technology available at the time. It was popularly believed to have been described as "unsinkable." It was a great shock to many that, despite the extensive safety features, the Titanic sank. The frenzy on the part of the media about Titanic's famous victims, the legends about the sinking, the resulting changes to maritime law, and the discovery of the wreck have contributed to the continuing interest in, and notoriety of, the Titanic.
