Titanic II Construction Is the Tip of the Iceberg
Despite the tragic disaster that was the voyage of the Titanic, shipping company Blue Star Line is looking to replicate the ship, with Titanic II construction now underway. In 1912, the original Titanic was the largest passenger ship of its time, and even though the builders called it “unsinkable,” five days after launch, it hit an iceberg and sunk in less than three short hours. Approximately 1,500 people died in this famous tragedy. The disaster was even more famous with the 1997 film “Titanic.” So why would anyone want to repeat one of the biggest failures in history?
