The RMS Titanic sinking was a maritime accident that occurred at midnight on Sunday, April 14, 1912, and continued into the early morning of Monday, April 15, 1912. This period marked the end of the Titanic's sinking, making it one of the most serious disasters in history.
Before sinking, the Titanic had traveled approximately two-thirds of its journey from Southampton, England, to New York, USA, across the Atlantic Ocean after departing Queenstown, Ireland, on April 11, 1912.
At 11:40 PM that night, the Titanic struck an iceberg and suffered a large hole in its starboard side, causing significant water ingress. Two and a half hours later, the Titanic broke in two and began to sink completely. It wasn't until 4:00 AM the following morning that the Carpathia arrived and began rescue operations.
