Over the course of the night, various officers and seamen on the deck of Leyland Liner Californian witnessed white rockets being fired into the air over a strange ship off in the distance, totaling eight in all.
Exhausted after 17 hours on duty, Captain Lord was awakened twice during the night, and told about the rockets to which he replied that they may be "company rockets", to help ships identify themselves to liners of the same company. He ignored the distress call for his own selfish pleasure. I would not forgive him even if I was a survivor because he could have saved everyone if he wasnt to busy sleeping.
