Hmmm... my understanding was the the Titanic did not send up any distress
signal, although there were claims that they did. They fired rockets, but
not red ones I believe.

Joe, for 2.5 points, which distress signal did the Titanic
send out.


MGY (the Titanic's call sign) CQD

And some time later they remembered the then-new signal and sent

MGY SOS

So the answer is both.

Is that were SOS came from? or was it save our souls?


No it stands for "Steel Only Sinks."
