Motu One (Society Islands)

Motu One, also known as Bellinghausen, is an atoll in the Leeward group of the Society Islands in the South Pacific Ocean. It lies 550 kilometres (340 mi) northwest of Tahiti and 72 kilometres (45 mi) northeast of Manuae, its nearest neighbor.

History
The name Atoll Bellinghausen or more rarely Bellingshausen was given to this small atoll by Otto von Kotzebue, an officer and navigator of Baltic German descent in the Imperial Russian Navy, in honour of Fabian Gottlieb von Bellingshausen. It should not be confused with Bellingshausen Island, part of the South Sandwich Islands, in the southwest Atlantic. The atoll was visited by the US Exploring Expedition in Sept. 1839. ==Administration==
