Ocean users are cautioned to keep far from three uncrewed Saildrone Explorer research vessels that have been deployed around the Hawaiian Islands to help look for signs of climate change.

The University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Pacific Marine Environmental Lab, and the Cooperative Institute for Climate, Ocean, and Ecosystem Studies, are collaborating with Saildrone Inc. on the project.

To accompany the saildrones, buoys are being set up around each island to collect critical ocean chemistry observations.

Remotely piloted saildrones are zigzagging the waters of Hawaii to collect data on ocean health.

Viruses that jump from animals to humans are the likely sources of major health threats, say scientists, and bats are the number one suspect.

This seems like something you'd see in a Marvel movie.
