The Rutgers University Center for Ocean Observing Leadership (RUCOOL) is creating knowledge of our ocean planet by pushing the limits of science and new technologies while inspiring future generations of ocean explorers.
The Sentinel Mission will try to circumnavigate the global ocean following nautical rules by an underwater robot. The goal is to demonstrate new technology developed by Teledyne Marine Inc and promote curiosity of the ocean planet. The mission will use the newly developed Teledyne Marine’s Sentinel autonomous underwater vehicle. Our our goal is to build global unity, contribute scientific discoveries, and inspire a sustainable relationship with our world’s oceans.
