the lucky people. But fifteen hundred men, women and children could not lea_ the
ship. They die_ in the icy waters of the Atlantic Ocean. It took the Titanic two and a
half hours to go down. Only the arrival

    As a result of the catastrophe, the first International Convention for Safety of Life

only 1,178 boat places for 2,224 passengers. It was also deman          to have a 24hour
radio watch on every ship.
    The liner "Californian," which was less than 32 kilometers away from the Titanic,
didn't receive its SOS signals because the radio operator wasn't on duty at night.
