The Titanic did not have enough lifeboats for all passengers - only for about 1,200 people, but there were about 2,223 on board.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In the early morning of 15 April 1912, the Titanic collided with an iceberg off the coast of Newfoundland. The sinking of the Titanic was the largest peacetime shipwreck in the history of maritime navigation. 1,518 people died. Only 711 out of 2,223 people survived.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Myths and legends have been created around the fatal shipwreck, making the Titanic probably the most famous ship in history.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For many years, historians, treasure hunters, oceanographers and businessmen searched for the wreck. Finally, the remains of the ship were discovered on 1 September 1985 by Robert Ballard during a secret mission spearhead by the United States Navy. The wreck of the Titanic was located 3,784 metres deep, about 800 km off the coast of Canada.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The lights of the Titanic went out minutes before it disappeared into the Atlantic Ocean along with the dream of reaching New York.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Titanic Data Sheet&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;With a total tonnage of 45,000 tons.

                <description>&lt;img src=&#039;https://www.corona-net.de/out/pictures/generated/product/1/390_245_75/12011.jpg&#039; border=0 align=&#039;left&#039; hspace=5&gt;One of the most important ships in the history of polar exploration&lt;br&gt;The Fram was not just a ship; it was a floating monument to humanity&#039;s exploratory and scientific spirit. Its achievements at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century made it a legend of polar exploration, demonstrating that with design, ingenuity, and courage, the limits of what is possible can be expanded.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;HISTORICAL CONTEXT&lt;br&gt;The Fram is known as one of the most resilient and iconic polar ships in the history of Arctic and Antarctic exploration. Designed to withstand the harshest sailing conditions and endure the blows of ice blocks as hard as stone and as sharp as blades, it was built to move forward, always forward. That is why the Norwegians named it &quot;Fram.&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;During its years of service, the Fram was not only a technical marvel but also a symbol of perseverance and the spirit of exploration: a relentless and tireless pursuit of the unknown. From its first voyages, the Fram embodied humanity&#039;s determination to face the most daunting challenges and venture into the final frontier, enabling some of the world&#039;s greatest explorers to achieve unprecedented feats.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It was designed by Colin Archer, following the specifications of Fridtjof Nansen, who conceived it for his famous North Pole expedition.&lt;br&gt;Its rounded and sturdy hull protected it from the relentless pressure of polar ice, allowing it to float on the ice pack rather than being crushed, as happened with other ships.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It was intended to sail during the summer and allow the winter freeze to trap the ship, turning it into a stationary base.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Dragged by the movement of the floating ice (since there is no land at the North Pole), the ship would study ice movements and perhaps come close enough to the planet&#039;s northernmost point to launch an assault.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The vessel turned out to be slow and difficult to maneuver, &quot;with all the seafaring qualities of a barn.&quot; However, it was highly capable of withstanding the pressure of the ice.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;To ensure this, its builders took extreme measures. The keel was constructed with two 36x36 cm beams of American elm, upon which the frames were mounted.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Its rounded and sturdy hull protected it from the relentless pressure of polar ice, allowing it to float on the ice pack instead of being crushed, as happened to other vessels.&lt;br&gt;Between 1893 and 1912, the Fram participated in three historic polar expeditions:&lt;br&gt;-Nansen&#039;s Expedition (1893-1896): Reached a record proximity to the North Pole (82°27&#039;N).&lt;br&gt;-Otto Sverdrup&#039;s Expedition (1898-1902): Mapped and explored 260,000 km² in the Canadian Arctic, discovering new islands.&lt;br&gt;-Roald Amundsen&#039;s Expedition (1910-1912): Used for the conquest of the South Pole, reached on December 14, 1911.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Challenging the impossible&lt;br&gt;Scale: 1/85&lt;br&gt;Length: 586 mm&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Width: 205 mm&lt;br&gt;Height: 441 mm&lt;br&gt;Difficulty: Medium&lt;br&gt;Hours of construction: 480 aprox.&lt;br&gt;Number of Pieces: 1974&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;age recommendation: +14&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;WARNING!
