OOC: Certainly nobody would know the Titanic today, except specialists of naval history. The Titanic would the largest ship on earth only for a year or so until German ships catch up. The Titanic was luxurious, yes, but she wasn't significantly more sumptuous than other passenger ships of the period. I'm thinking of the Mauretania and of the Imperator here.
Also, the Titanic had two sister ships, so she would have to share her glory with the Olympic and the Britannic. Maybe the Olympic would even be better known than the Titanic!
For sure only few of us, having at least read a biography of him, would know that Astor was on the Titanic.
