Summary

On the night of April 14, 1912, Titanic received at least 6 iceberg warnings. All were ignored.

Titanic's radio operators were busy with passenger telegrams that night. Iceberg warnings either never reached the bridge or were ignored. The last warning came just 40 minutes before the collision. Captain Smith didn't reduce speed because Titanic was known as "unsinkable." 1,517 people lost their lives.
