In July of 1951 Congress authorized construction of the world's first nuclear powered submarine. On December 12th of that year, the Navy Department announced that she would be the sixth ship of the fleet to bear the name NAUTILUS. Her keel was laid by President Harry S. Truman at the Electric Boat Shipyard in Groton, Connecticut on June 14, 1952. First, witness the launch of USS Nautilus – the world’s first “true” submarine, capable of staying underwater for months without refuelling or surfacing. At 11 a. m.

Wilkinson USN, ordered all lines cast off and signaled the memorable and historic message, “Underway on Nuclear Power.” Nautilus broke many records and in 1958 became the first submarine to cruise underneath the North Pole.
