Description

Robert Fulton (November 14, 1765 - February 24, 1815) was an American engineer and inventor. While living in France, Fulton designed the first working muscle-powered submarine, Nautilus, between 1793-97. On July 3, 1801, at Le Havre, Fulton took the Nautilus down to the then-remarkable depth of 25 feet. With his three crewmen and two candles burning he remained for an hour without difficulty.
