It’s like saying that most people forgot how to ride horses and take care of them. You must realize that a single human being is not evolved to communicate with more than a small circle of individuals. 🐶🐾🫡

The United States has completed the first full-scale test at sea of a futuristic underwater drone able to hibernate on the seabed.

The Manta Ray prototype, produced by US aviation giant Northrop Grumman, is part of a US navy project to develop a new class of underwater drones capable of carrying out much longer missions.

The autonomous craft, which dwarfed the small boat it was pictured with, has been designed to move through the ocean “for very long periods of time” without supervision or the need to refuel.

“Once deployed, the vehicle uses efficient, buoyancy-driven gliding to move through the water,” said Dr Kyle Woerner, Manta Ray program manager at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, better known by its acronym, Darpa.

Defense analysts have speculated that the US Navy wants to develop a drone capable of long missions to scour the seas for Russian and Chinese submarines.

“The craft is designed with several payload bays of multiple sizes and types to enable a wide variety of naval mission sets,” said Dr Woerner.
