Motu One, also known as Bellinghausen, is an atoll in the Leeward group of the Society Islands. Motu One is located 550 km northwest from Tahiti and 72 km northeast of Manuae, its closest neighbor. Motu One's reef encloses totally a lagoon without a pass. All of its sides are covered with low, wooded sandy islands except for its southern side. ''Motu One'' means ''Sand Island'' in Polynesian, that is a low-lying, sandy islet that cannot sustain permanent human habitation. ==History== The name ''Bellinghausen'' or more rarely ''Bellingshausen'' was given to this small atoll by the Baltic German navigator in Russian service Otto von Kotzebue 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.
