While we may be waiting on unmanned drones to provide a pizza, there’s already an unmanned ship plying the Atlantic on a transoceanic voyage. It’s called Scout, as well as it’s the product of about two years worth of work by a extremely close-knit group of friends.

Scout is a 12.5 foot ship built out of foam as well as carbon fiber packed up with solar panels, electronics, an electric motor as well as a area satellite tracker. The team has been working on Scout for the last two years now, as well as this last week the autonomous ship lastly set out on its mission: a 3500 mile journey from Rhode Island across the Atlantic to Spain.

Right now, Scout is just over four days into its objective having travelled 90 miles from Rhode Island on its method to Spain. You can comply with Scout on its journey on this extremely great online tracking site.
