Have you ever heard about Titanic? I bet you have.
Have you ever seen the movie version of Titanic? Once again, I bet you have.
Yes, Titanic is the most famous legendary ship ever. It filmed in 1997 by James Cameron, as we know the story of the movie is fiction include the main characters like Rose DeWitt Bukater (Kate Winslet) and Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio),but the characters like the captain of the Titanic, Captain Edward James Smith (Bernard Hill), Margaret "Molly" Brown (Kathy Bates), Thomas Andrews ((Victor Garber) and Bruce Ismay (Jonathan Hyde) are not fiction, they were exist and they were the part of this legendary ship.

Well, I wanna remind you a little bit about this legendary ship which sank in Atlantic Ocean. Titanic was owned by White Star Line, constructed in Ireland, and it was a passenger liner. It struck an iceberg on its maiden voyage (it was so tragic, wasn't it?) from Southampton, England to New York City, America and sank on 15 April 1912. More 1.500 passengers and the crews dead because of that tragically accident.
The body of Titanic in the bottom of Atlantic Ocean is a treasure, but actually it is predicted that it will lost forever in 2030 (another tragic destiny). Two scientists, Dr Hensaatrietta Mann and Bhavleen Kaur from Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada together with the researchers from Sevilla University, Spain found bacteria which eat the body of Titanic, Halmonas titanicae. They have been eating 50.000 ton of copper since Titanic sank. Mann predicted Titanic has only 15-20 years more, after that it will lost. So, it is predicted that the ship which ever called "The Unsinkable" ship will become a memory in 2030. When it does, watch Titanic movie will be more meaningful.
