The USS Nautilus was the world’s first atomic submarine. It served from 1954 through 1980. If you’re near the Groton, CT area, you can visit the Submarine Force Museum, and tour the Nautilus. The submarine is better remembered for being the first ship to cross the North Pole. Terence Kay in his book “Space Volunteers” tells us what happened during Operation Sunshine, the voyage from the Pacific, under the North Pole ice cap, to the Atlantic. Here’s a selection from the book written by me in Anniversary.
