In that case, they should have issued a mayday as soon as they discovered
him.

Do you also understand that Leonardo Di Caprio was aboard
ship?

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."
