rescue

The ship that came to the Titanic's rescue was the RMS Carpathia. The Carpathia received the Titanic's distress signal and immediately sprang into action, changing course and racing to the scene at full speed ¹. Under the command of Captain Arthur Henry Rostron, the Carpathia navigated through treacherous ice fields and arrived at the Titanic's location just over three and a half hours later. Unfortunately, the Titanic had already sunk, but the Carpathia was able to rescue 705 survivors from the lifeboats ¹. The Carpathia's crew and passengers provided aid and comfort to the survivors, offering food, clothing, and medical care. The ship then sailed to New York, where it arrived on April 18, 1912, and was met by thousands of people eager to catch a glimpse of the survivors and the heroic crew of the Carpathia ¹.
