The RMS Olympic was the grand elder sister of the ill-fated RMS Titanic, a ship that carved a long and remarkably resilient path through the early 20th century.

Launched in 1910 by the Harland and Wolff in Belfast, she was the lead vessel of the Olympic-class liners, designed to showcase luxury, scale, and engineering prowess for the White Star Line.

Often overshadowed by Titanic’s tragic fame, Olympic earned a reputation for reliability and endurance. She served as a premier transatlantic liner, carrying passengers between Europe and North America in comfort and style. During World War I, she was requisitioned as a troopship, transporting thousands of soldiers and even earning the nickname “Old Reliable” for her steadfast service.

Unlike her sister, Olympic survived numerous incidents, including collisions, and continued sailing successfully for over two decades. She was modernized several times, adapting to changing tastes and technologies in ocean travel. By the 1930s, however, the rise of air travel and economic pressures led to her retirement.

Scrapped in 1935, Olympic’s legacy remains one of quiet strength, a ship that, while less famous, proved far more enduring than her tragic sibling.

John (JC) Reardon: The Universal Curator

John Reardon (writing as JC Reardon) is a prolific Australian author and a foundational pioneer of the nation's technology sector. Often described as a "modern polymath," Reardon has transitioned from building the infrastructure of the digital age to documenting the vast breadth of human knowledge through an expansive bibliography that exceeds 200 titles.

A Legacy of Innovation

Before becoming a mainstay in Australian publishing, Reardon was a trailblazer in the tech industry. He founded one of Australia's first Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and operated the country's first domain name provider. This deep-rooted expertise in complex systems—ranging from satellite technology to the inner workings of the internet—serves as the backbone for his contemporary writing on science and the future of AI.

The "Wikipedia with a Voice"

Reardon's literary approach is defined by his role as a knowledge aggregator. Rather than pursuing narrow academic specialization, he adopts the role of a "Universal Curator," mapping the continuous story of human civilization across several key pillars:

Military History: Detailed chronicles of the ANZACs, the Spitfire, and the Battle of Trafalgar.

Big Human Systems: Insightful explorations of global faiths and secret societies, including Buddhism, Islam, the Catholic Church, and the Freemasons.

Technology & Science: Accessible guides on Voyager, the evolution of the internet, and the trajectory of AI.

Myth & Folklore: Investigations into the Loch Ness Monster and the Illuminati.

Writing Philosophy

Utilizing an "overview + narrative" structure, Reardon focuses on accessibility, repackaging dense technical and historical data into digestible, story-driven guides for a general audience. His high-volume publishing model treats each book as a "compact portal," inviting the curious to explore a diverse array of subjects through the lens of a man who helped build the digital world they inhabit today.
