It was loosely based upon the design of the original [[Earth]] sea-going vessel ''[[RMS Titanic]]''.

This was primarily a tourist vessel, and it is unclear whether [[Max Capricorn]], the owner, was aware of the name's significance.

The vessel, under the command of [[Hardaker|Captain Hardaker]], travelled to Earth in [[December]] [[2008]] to allow its passengers to experience the Earth holiday of [[Christmas]]. The vessel was bedecked with Christmas decorations, and its ship band performed Christmas songs, although some facts related to the holiday were skewed due to the ship's poorly informed history expert, [[Bayldon Copper]]. [[Tenth Doctor|The Doctor]], fresh from leaving [[Martha Jones]] on Earth ([[DW]]: ''[[Last of the Time Lords]]'') and a brief encounter with his [[Fifth Doctor|fifth incarnation]] ([[DW]]: ''[[Time Crash]]''), accidentally collided his [[the Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] with the ''Titanic'', though neither vessel was damaged. The Doctor boarded the vessel, effectively as a stowaway, and befriended several passengers as well as crewmembers Bayldon Copper and [[Astrid Peth]]. | The vessel, under the command of [[Hardaker|Captain Hardaker]], travelled to Earth in [[December]] [[2008]] to allow its passengers to experience the Earth holiday of [[Christmas]].
