USS Nautilus

P10819 U.S.S. NAUTILUS, the world's first nuclear-powered submarine, is seen here leaving New London harbor on its maiden voyage. Seen in the background, left, are Southwest Ledge Lighthouse and the out- line of Groton. The Nautilus can circumnavigate the globe without surfacing, and can dive deeper and travel faster than any sub before it.
