Tech History Sunk on April 15, 1912

On this day in 1912 the Titanic sunk into the icy depths taking over 1,500 passengers with her. Hailed as unsinkable the Titanic's bottom resembled an ice cube tray. An iceberg hit the front of the ship which allowed water to rush in. Quickly the water overflowed into the the next section. This continued until the boat sank. Many mistakes were made and learned from. This unbelievable loss change Maritime laws and rules. More importantly it brought us an awesome movie and song.
