Nuclear American History | N.S. Savannah | Drone Footage

Decommissioned 50 years ago in 1972, the N. S. (Nuclear Ship) Savannah was one of a kind. She was designed as a showcase of nuclear powered potential and built as a hybrid passenger and cargo ship.

Today the Savannah hangs out in the Port of Baltimore and departs occasionally for maintenance.
