# Titanic # Why did it go to the iceberg?

There are many icebergs there. The British superliner "Barmor Lear" relived the Titanic's death journey and arrived in new york safely on April 12, encountering more icebergs on the way.

The route of Titanic is as follows:

19 12 April 10,

12 from Southampton, England;

/kloc-at 0/9, the ship docked at Selburg, France to meet the guests (the fat woman in the movie should have boarded the Titanic by ferry at that time);

2 1 Leave Cerbo and head for Queenstown Port.

19 12 April 1 1,

/kloc-docked at Queensport at 0/2: 30 to pick up passengers and deliver mail, and a crew member absconded.

Leave Queensport on 14 for new york (sailing destination).

19 12 April 14,

At 23: 40, it collided with an iceberg at 50 degrees 14 minutes west longitude and 4 degrees 16 minutes north latitude.

19 12 April 15,

The whole ship sank at 2: 20.

Note: Queensport is a port in Ireland. These four points constitute the route, which you can find on the world map.

There are different opinions about the reasons for the sinking of Titanic, which is considered as an unsinkable ship. Two recent studies have pointed out that the cause of the shipwreck is not man-made disasters, but natural disasters. According to a study, the winter before the sinking of the Titanic was the closest to the moon and the sun for thousands of years, which led to abnormal tides at sea and washed the icebergs on the shore onto the Titanic route. The second study pointed out that the sea surface temperature was extremely low on the day of the crash, which led to the downward refraction of light, blurred the front of the Titanic, made it difficult to see the iceberg ahead, and also made it impossible for nearby ships to find the giant Titanic and missed the opportunity to save people.
