If you've ever wondered what it'd be like to sail on the Titanic, then here's your chance to find out - a billionaire is building a hi-tech replica of the ill-fated ship!
As I'm sure you will know the ocean cruise liner sunk after it hit an iceberg 100 years ago.The work on the memorial ship is set to start next year and will set sail from London to New York in 2016! Nobody knows how much it will cost, but it will be a lot!
The brains behind the project is mining billionaire Clive Palmer. He's asked a Chinese shipyard to build the replica ship. And they agreed!
"It is going to be designed so it won't sink,'' he added. ''But, of course, if you are superstitious... you never know what could happen.''
More than 1,500 passengers and crew died in the Titanic disaster back in 1912.
