Among them Bruce Ismay the Managing Director of the White Star Line; Second Officer Charles Lightoller who figures prominently in the Walter Lord bestseller A Night to Remember Guglielmo Marconi inventor and electrical engineer whose name was synonymous with radio wave-based wireless system telegraphy and whose company provided wireless service for both the Titanic and the Carpathia the ship that responded to the Titanic's distress signal and Captain Arthur Rostron of the Carpathia among many surviving passengers and crew.The colossal meeting of hubris poor navigation and exceptionally bad timing resulted in a disaster that reverberates ad infinitum.
