Summary The world's largest aircraft carrier, the 100,000 tonne USS Nimitz, is a remarkable feat of design engineering, and is able to sail for 20 years without refuelling. One of the most complex machines ever built, the ship is closer to a city on the sea, equipped to serve 6,000 personnel at any one time, but only in existence because of seven prior stages of nautical evolution.
