They were wrong. richard84 https://padlet.com/richard84/td0vjp1ah030/wish/188228178 2017-09-17 14:03:21 UTC https://padlet.com/richard84/td0vjp1ah030/wish/188228178 The sinking of the ship happened on the night of 14th April through to the morning of 15th April 1912 in the North Atlantic Ocean, four days into the ship's very first journey from Southampton to New York. About 2,224 people were on the ship when she struck an iceberg at around 23:40 on Sunday 14th April 1912. More than 1,500 people died richard84 https://padlet.com/richard84/td0vjp1ah030/wish/188228938 2017-09-17 14:11:42 UTC https://padlet.com/richard84/td0vjp1ah030/wish/188228938 The disaster caused outrage over the lack of lifeboats and the unequal treatment of the passenger classes during the sinking. This lead to setting up the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), which still governs maritime safety today. richard84 https://padlet.com/richard84/td0vjp1ah030/wish/188230368 2017-09-17 14:27:07 UTC https://padlet.com/richard84/td0vjp1ah030/wish/188230368
