The latest results and the activities towards the realization of a km(3) Cherenkov neutrino detector carried Out by the NEMO Collaboration are described. The realization of a Phase-1 Project has validated all relevant technologies proposed for the realization of the km(3) detector on a test site at 2000 m depth. The realization of a new infrastructure on the candidate Capo Passero site (for Phase-2 project) will provide the possibility to test detector components at 3500 m depth. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
