VERY CONFUSED(TITANIC QUESTIONS?!)?
So,I can't get myself to understand this.
So if titanic hit the Iceberg at 11:42AM Ships time.. Then what time would that be in Eastern Time Zone? Like what time do I look at the clock here and know when the titanic hit the iceberg? and when it went under(not sure the time,just know 2 something) What time would it be here? I wanna post something on FB right when it hit the iceberg but I have no idea when it did for my time. I can't just post it at 11:42AM (Eastern Time Zone) titanic would've long been under water?!?!? Sooo confused -.- Ads |

The short answer seems to be we don't know exactly. Here's a guy with way too much time (so to speak) on his hands who has looked into this in excruciating detail: http://awesometalks.wordpress.com/2012/0...e-iceberg/

It hit it at night, so it was not 11:42 a.m.
It turns out this is somewhat complicated, and I found a very good website that explains it: http://awesometalks.wordpress.com/2012/0...e-iceberg/ If you convert the "shipboard" time to modern time, apparently you get that it hit the iceberg at 11:07 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time and sank at 1:47 a.m. the next morning, EDT. |
