Make sure there is zero plagiarism.: A lifeboat with Titanic survivors approaches the RMS Carpathia on April 15, 1912.Carl Simon/United Archives/Universal Images Group via Getty ImagesThe RMS Titanic sank on April 15, 1912 — almost 112 years ago — after it hit an iceberg.The RMS Carpathia, which was three hours away, came to the rescue of the stranded survivors.The sinking of the Titanic on April 15, 1912, has captured the world’s fascination for 112 years. The stories of those plucked from the icy waters — or those who narrowly missed being aboard the ship — dominated headlines for months following the sinking. In the decades since, the discovery of the wreckage, ill-fated attempts to visit it, and 1997’s “Titanic” — history’s first billion-dollar film — all proved the tragedy’s enduring legacy.Around 2,200 people were aboard the RMS Titanic when it set sail across the Atlantic Ocean toward New York City. Of those people, only around 700 survivors made it into lifeboats after the ship collided with an iceberg off the coast of Greenland.The RMS Carpathia, which was three hours away at the time of the sinking, came to the rescue of the stranded survivors.These photos show how the Titanic passengers were rescued from the icy waters. The “unsinkable” Titanic set sail on its ill-fated voyage on April 10, 1912, with around 2,200 people aboard. The RMS Titanic.      Science & Society Picture Library/Getty Images A British passenger liner, the Titanic was operated White Star Line and was traveling from Southampton, England, to New York City. At 11:40 p.m. on April 14, an iceberg was spotted 400 nautical miles south of Newfoundland, Canada, but it was too late for the ship to change course. The iceberg believed to have sank the Titanic.      Universal History Archive/Getty Images The two lookouts, Fredrick Fleet and Reginald Lee, failed to spot the iceberg in time.Fleet and Lee were contending with an unusually calm ocean, which made icebergs less visible since there would be no breaking water at the base. Their binoculars were also locked in a cabinet, which meant the lookouts were tasked with spotting icebergs using their eyes alone.However, lookouts were trained to spot objects with the naked eye first, and 1912-era binoculars were not much more advanced than the trained eyesight of the lookouts, according to Encyclopedia Titanic. Given the short amount of time between when the lookouts saw the iceberg and the time of impact, binoculars still likely wouldn’t have prevented a collision.The Titanic attempted to avoid the iceberg, but it failed to turn in time. As the ship scraped the iceberg, it tore a hole in the side of the ship, rupturing at least five of the watertight compartments. By 2:20 a.m., the stern of the Titanic slipped under water, and the surviving passengers never saw it again.

Due to the water, the ship’s bow continued to sink, causing the stern to rise into the sky.By 2 a.m., the crew was released the captain. Shortly after, the Titanic’s lights went out, the ship broke into two pieces, and the bow sank beneath the waves. Twenty minutes later, the stern followed suit, sending hundreds of crewmembers and passengers into the sea. Of the 2,200 or so people aboard the Titanic, only around 700 people made it into lifeboats.

There were only 20 lifeboats aboard the Titanic, according to Britannica, which could carry up to 1,178 people, only half of the ship’s passengers and crew.These boats were launched below capacity, for fear that the device lowering the boats would break if the boats were full. For instance, the first lifeboat to leave Titanic had the capacity for 65 people but was carrying only 27 when it launched, Britannica reported.After the ship sank, people in lifeboats returned to search for survivors, but they found most people who entered the water had not drowned. Instead, they had frozen to death. There were not enough lifeboats to hold the number of passengers that needed to evacuate.

In fact, a lifeboat drill had actually been planned for the morning before Titanic’s sinking but it was canceled.Loading passengers into the lifeboats turned to chaos. While some boats launched half full, others got stuck as they were being lowered into the water and were swarmed people desparate to get on, Prologue magazine reported, per the National Archives.

Instead, the RMS Carpathia responded to the Titanic’s distress call and changed course to help. The RMS Carpathia.      Bettmann/Getty Images The Titanic’s distress call reached the Carpathia, a transatlantic passenger liner manned Captain Arthur Rostron, at 12:20 a.m., but it was more than three hours away. Another ship, the Olympic, was too far away to help. Arriving at 3:30 a.m., the Carpathia came to the rescue of the survivors in the lifeboats.

It would take several hours for the ship to pick up all of the survivors. By 8:30 a.m., the final person from Titanic’s lifeboats had boarded the Carpathia.

The ship did discover four bodies, which crew members buried at sea, according to the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. The passengers and crew of the Carpathia tried to accommodate the survivors once they were aboard, but for many, the life-changing experience had rendered them inconsolable.

Many of the survivors were upset and could do nothing but cry, or were shell-shocked what they had experienced. Rather than continuing along their original course, Carpathia’s captain chose to return to New York City.

The ship’s captain decided to head back to New York, which had been the Titanic’s original destination. Halifax later became the main port for ships retrieving bodies from the wreckage. According to the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, three ships dispatched from Halifax were able to retrieve 328 bodies from the wreckage, or only one in five victims. Roughly half of the Titanic victims’ bodies are buried in Halifax, 119 bodies were buried at sea, and only 59 bodies were claimed victims’ relatives and returned home. A majority of the bodies buried at sea were damaged beyond recognition or belonged to crew members or third-class passengers.The main vessel charged with retrieving bodies, the Mackay-Bennett, also ran out of embalming supplies — the ship didn’t expect to find so many bodies in the water — forcing crew members to bury more people at sea than intended.
