The only ship left from the White Star Line, the company that built and sailed the RMS Titanic, has been refurbished and opened as a museum. The Nomadic was built alongside the Titanic in Belfast and ferried doomed passengers to her in her only voyage.
There's no greater joy to an architectural firm than having their creation nominated for an award - unless, that is, the award is given for the wrong reasons. That's the case with The Carbuncle Cup in the U.K., and the Titanic Belfast has been nominated.
The date Tuesday, April 10, 2012 marks the day, 100 years past, that the RMS Titanic set sail from Southampton in England on her maiden voyage, headed for the cosmopolitan city of New York. As the world knows, the Titanic never arrived.
With the turning of the calendar to January and the year 2012 people interested in the R.M.S. Titanic will find an increase of information on the sunken liner and events to attend.
