Best Answer: The RMS Titanic (or SS Titanic) was a British passenger ship. It was built by Harland and Wolff ship builders, in Belfast, for the White Star Line company. At 11:40 PM on April 14, 1912, during Titanic's first trip, it hit an iceberg in the Atlantic Ocean. The iceberg broke the Titanic's hull (bottom) making water to come into the ship. The Titanic sank two hours and forty minutes later at 2:20 AM on April 15.
