Titanic II plans unveiled - euronews

An Australian billionaire has announced plans to build a modern day version of the Titanic.

A century after the original ship sank, Clive Palmer has signed up a Chinese state-owned company to construct Titanic II.

It will have the same dimensions and is expected to make its maiden voyage from England to North America, the old Titanic route, in 2016.
