It's hard to imagine the destruction the world might have seen had the Nazis had access to nuclear weapons, in 1943 this seemed like a real possibility. Nestled in the Norwegian hillside was a facility that could provide the Nazis with another piece to their nuclear puzzle: heavy water. Vemork Hydro Plant had a giant store and the ability to produce more. With the threat of the nuclear weapons looming, the Allies would plan and carry out Operation Gunnerside, the most successful act of sabotage in WWII. A daring mission to thwart Hitler's atomic bomb. It would require skis, scaling equipment and explosives and the sacrifice of many brave men.

When Joseph Goebbles featured the luxurious SS Cap Arcona in a propaganda film about the Titanic, he never imagined this German ocean liner would meet a similar tragic fate. Over the course of the war, one of the most opulent ships ever built would serve many functions: a propagndic coup, a transport vessel, and eventually a concentration camp. This is the story of the Nazi Titanic, a floating metaphor for the war and its casualties. From one of the most luxurious ocean liners ever built to a floating death machine, the tale is even more tragic than Goebbels first intended.
