It looks like the Healy has been having an interesting voyage. They had aboard a team from the Research and Development Center that were aboard to try out some new technologies.

Here you will find a listing of what they hoped to do while aboard. Projects included.

• 3-D Printing
• NOAA buoy
• Passive Millimeter Wave Camera
• Oil Skimmer
• Small Unmanned Aircraft System
• MSST San Diego Dive Team in Cooperation with a Navy dive team
• Unmanned surface and subsurface vehicles

A later post shows how it turned out–lots of photos. It is presented in reverse chronological order, August 6 to July 21, so you might want to read it from bottom up.
