In 1452, Leonardo da Vinci was born.

In 1912, the RMS Titanic sank. Fourteen years earlier, Morgan Robertson's novel 'Futility' had a giant ship called Titan sink on her maiden voyage after hitting an iceberg in about the same place. In 1939 a ship called the Titanian was reportedly damaged by an iceberg in the same place the Titanic went down, but later investigation showed that the Titanian was far from where the Titanic met its doom.
