    For centuries, the North Pole remained elusive. Early attempts to reach it were primarily motivated by the search for a navigable route through the Arctic to Asia, known as the Northwest Passage. Later, explorers focused specifically on reaching the Pole itself. But for centuries, reaching it seemed impossible. The polar environment was extremely unforgiving. Located in the middle of the Arctic Ocean, the North Pole is covered by a vast expanse of sea ice which constantly changes due to wind, ocean currents and seasonal melts. Explorers tried to reach the pole using ships, dogsleds, and even traveling by foot. The first verified, and officially recognized expedition to reach the North Pole didn’t occur until 1926 (although several explorers claimed to have reached it earlier). It was first reached using the airship Norge, which flew overhead, but did not land on the surface.
    In the late 1920’s, accomplished explorer Sir Hubert Wilkins became convinced that a submarine would provide the ultimate means of reaching the North Pole. A submarine could travel for extended periods beneath the ice, avoiding the extreme hazards above which had caused earlier expeditions to fail. Carrying the latest scientific equipment, the submarine’s crew could conduct valuable meteorological, oceanographic, biological, magnetic, and spectrographic experiments.
    Wilkin’s submarine would be called the Nautilus. It was a retired WW1-era submarine that had been extensively modified by renowned Naval Architect Simon Lake. The Nautilus featured a heavily reinforced bow, a shock absorber and sledge runners to protect it from collision with sea ice. A diving compartment and airlock was also added to allow divers to explore the depths while the submarine remained submerged. Most importantly, the Nautilus was fitted with three ice drills, allowing the submarine to recharge batteries, refresh air and even allow the crew to exit while the submarine still remained below the ice.
    The Nautilus and her crew of 20 men began their expedition to the North Pole in June of 1931.
    None of them realized how grueling their journey would be, and almost immediately things began to go wrong.

    I have surfaced through the polar ice on three occasions with Royal Navy subs and those were fraught with danger so to see someone attempt the same nearly 100 years ago is breathtaking. The fact that this boat used diesels, which needed air to operate, was incredibly risky as coming across a polynia could be very hit and miss without upward looking sonar to aid discovery of an area of open water.

      I joined to serve on endurance after being rejected by the British antarctic survey. Heard submariners get rock star wages so changed over during the recruitment process. I then joined a boat that had an incident under the ice after the fact. Served all my time on that boat before being injured and put into recovery. Never did get a chance to visit the ice. Drafty had my name down for a boat which done an icex 2 months after I was discharged. Never been so annoyed in my life.

      I think it was Edison that said something like "I've never failed, I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work"
      I feel like "failure" is so misunderstood these days. Failure is a VITAL component to progression. And you can't fail if you don't try. Problem is these days it's: "if you don't fail, you succeed," and it should be closer to "if you fail, you're trying!"

      The book pages are practical effects (other than fading in the submarine internal graphic). The yellow book is real - you can find scans of it on the Internet Archive. The papers are real. The maps are copies from books with the lines animated in. The illustrated schematics look very similar to those in books on the topic from the 1990s but I can't find a list of sources used for the video to find an exact match.

Truly amazing feats of human engineering and tenacity.

      Due to the tendency to re-use names, the unique hull number is handy - that's *SSN-571* for the nuclear submarine _USS Nautilus_ . The "Nautilus" used by Wilkins was _USS O-12_ (hull *SS-73* ) before it was taken out of military service.
