The Titanic sank in the early morning hours of April 15, 1912, in the North Atlantic Ocean, four days into her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City. The ship collided with an iceberg off the coast of Newfoundland on the night of April 14, 1912, and disappeared beneath the ocean in the early hours of April 15, 1912, at about 2:20 a.m. . More than 1,500 people of the about 2,200 people on board were killed during the tragedy.
