USS Canopus (AS-34) was a Simon Lake-class submarine tender of the United States Navy, operational from 1965 to 1994. Canopus was located at Kings Bay during the early 1990s. During a ceremony held at the Warrior Wharf there on Friday, 7 October 1994, Canopus' 29 years of service was celebrated; and she was decommissioned from active service. Plans to scrap the vessel in the United Kingdom ran into controversy in view of the risks posed by toxic chemicals and asbestos. In 2010, scrapping of the Canopus was completed at Able UK.
