Titanics Sea Trials, Animated 112 Years Later
A MONTH TO REMEMBER APRIL 2ND 112 years ago today, Titanic underwent several hours of sea trials or turning circles as 2nd Officer Charles Lightoller so plainly described them. This important series of maneuvers was meant to prove her seaworthiness to the British Board of Trade and was required by law. After a successful day of trials, Titanic departed Belfast, Ireland (with just one farepaying passenger) for an overnight journey to Southampton, England where final preparations for her maiden voyage would be made. Join us all month long for new Titanic animations, announcements and livestreams including our first ever RealTime LIVE EVENT. For the full schedule, visit
