Sinking Titanic, New Theory:Was it the Moon's Fault?

Sinking Titanic:a reconstruction

Exactly 105 years have passed since the sinking of the Titanic, It sank into the icy waters of the Atlantic Ocean in the night between 14 and 15 April 1912, but has never stopped talking about this tragic and fascinating story at the same time, and even less investigating.

According to two physicists from the University of Texas (USA), the fault of the catastrophe would have been ... the Moon.

Our satellite in fact, aligning itself in a particular conjuncture with the Sun on January 4, 1912, caused, according to scientists, unusual tides which, in turn, led to an anomalous presence of iceberg stranded around the island of Newfoundland, right where the ocean liner had the fatal accident.
