The Nautilus is the

Sea. The Nautilus is a fictional, technologically
advanced underwater vessel that inspired engineers,
designers, and explorers.

The Nautilus submarine
captain Nemo
was described as "a masterpiece containing
masterpieces." Electricity provided by batteries (with the sodium provided
by extraction from seawater) was the primary power
source for propulsion.
Much of the
Nautilus was decorated to standards of luxury that were
unequalled in a seagoing vessel of the time. These
included a library with boxed collections of
valuable oceanic specimens that were unknown to
science at the time, expensive paintings, and
several collections of jewels. The submarine also
featured a lavish dining room and even an organ that
Captain Nemo used to entertain himself in the
evening.
