The Nautilus

Continued Growth : Throughout its life, the Nautilus continually grows, adding new chambers, new dimensions to its life and structure

Adaptability : The Nautilus easily adjusts to extremes of pressure by changing the water and air pressure in its chambers and it can live at immense depths

Durability : The Nautilus has survived and thrived for millions of years in the face of profound changes in the world around it

Distinctiveness : Inside and out, the Nautilus presents an appearance all its own: outside, a creamy white shell and wavy brown lines; inside, a lining of mother-of-pearl
