110 years after that fateful voyage, there's a NEW Titanic set to make its debut. The Titanic II...a replica of the original ship...set to embark on its maiden voyage in 2022. It was a $500 million project, featuring the same cabin layout as the original. The Titanic II will sail from Dubai to Southampton, England...and then on to New York, on the same North Atlantic route that sunk the original ship in 1912. The new ship will carry the same number of passengers and crew and, more importantly, will have better navigation AND enough lifeboats. Of course, thanks go Global Warming...they won't have to worry about hitting any icebergs!
