Robotic underwater glider sets out to circumnavigate the globe

The Redwing, a robotic underwater glider, is set to circumnavigate the globe in a groundbreaking five-year journey, enhancing our understanding of oceanography.

• Redwing, developed by Teledyne Technologies and Rutgers University–New Brunswick, will mimic Ferdinand Magellans historic voyage during its five-year circumnavigation of the globe.
• This underwater glider utilizes advanced buoyancy techniques to navigate ocean currents, providing vital data for oceanography research throughout its journey.
• Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution collaborates on the mission, aiming to gather unprecedented insights into the worlds oceans and their changing dynamics.
