Story of RU27 and a FIRST Alum
I'm switching from a lesser seen forum to continue this story here. 103 Alum Tina Haskins is featured in the compelling video that chronicles the first ever transatlantic crossing of a robotic glider:
http://rucool.marine.rutgers.edu/ - play that embedded video
OR see the direct Youtube link here:

it'll be the coolest 3:56 you spent on the internet today, I promise

-Oh Scarlet did make it to Spanish waters by the way, and Tina is currently in Antarctica working with other gliders and Rutgers scientists. Among other historic events, it looks like Neil Armstrong paid the Antarctic crew a visit in the last 24 hours... http://www.i-cool.org/?p=4615
