Dr. Stewart Nelson will present Sabotage and Re-discovery of the Historic Nautilus Submarine. This illustrated presentation recounts both Sir Hubert Wilkins' 1931 expedition and Dr. Nelson's re-discovery of the historic Nautilus.
In September 2005, Dr. Nelson, an oceanographer, author, lecturer and historian, used a manned submersible to re-discover and document the largely forgotten Nautilus of the Wilkins-Ellsworth Trans Arctic Submarine Expedition of 1931.
