How the Titanic Communicated The tragic event of the Titanic may have raised many questions. How was the Titanic able to get in contact with other ships? Many people might already know, but the radio that was put in the Titanic was not the best of the technology that was available at that time. The radio installed in the Titanic could have been more efficient, contacted more ships faster, and saved more lives than what it already did. “The Titanic disaster illustrates issues about broadcasting…
