The Submarine That Crossed the North Pole | Untold Cold War Story

Описание: In 1958, a submarine vanished beneath the Arctic ice… and reappeared under the North Pole. This is the true story of the impossible voyage that changed history forever.

The Impossible Voyage | The First Nuclear Submarine Under the North Pole

In the summer of 1958, at the height of the Cold War, the USS Nautilus (SSN-571) set out on a mission that would test the limits of technology, endurance, and human courage. Its goal: to travel beneath the frozen Arctic Ocean and become the first submarine in history to reach the North Pole.

Commanded by Captain Eugene Wilkinson, the Nautilus embarked on a voyage many considered impossible. The risks were enormous — crushing ice above, uncharted depths below, and the constant threat of mechanical failure in the most unforgiving environment on Earth. If the submarine became trapped under the polar ice, there would be no rescue.

This documentary retells the gripping true story of the Impossible Voyage: the fear, the silence of the Arctic depths, and the triumph that changed the course of history. The success of Nautilus not only demonstrated the power of nuclear propulsion but also gave the U.S. Navy a strategic edge in the Cold War.
