British ocean liner RMS Olympic is launched.

The RMS Olympic, sister ship to Titanic, is launched in Belfast, marking a triumph in maritime engineering.
On October 20, 1910, Harland and Wolff launched the RMS Olympic at their Belfast shipyard for the White Star Line. The Olympic was the first of three Olympic-class ocean liners and was the largest passenger ship in service at the time. Designed for transatlantic luxury travel, she boasted advanced safety features and sumptuous accommodations. After entering service in 1911, the ship served as a troop transport during World War I and earned the nickname 'Old Reliable.' She resumed commercial voyages until 1935 when she was retired and scrapped.
