April 5th, 1912, the 'unsinkable' ship, the Titanic, departed. On the fifteenth, early in the morning, it struck an iceburg and sunk to the bottom of the ocean, killing 1,517 people in the process. The news stunned everyone. It had been made of the best and latest techonology, boasted that it was the toughest ship ever made. And yet, it had failed them all.
Now, in 2008, it has been reborn. Such a long time later, scientists have finally concluded that it is safe as houses; that it couldn't sink even if it wanted to. People from far and wide have come to marvel at the brand new, all 882 feet 6 inches, Titanic. Assured that it wouldn't sink, everyone wants to take a ride.
But is it all it's cracked up to be? Will history repeat itself, or will all be well?
