Coral Spawning is here!

Witness the largest reproductive event on the planet as the Great Barrier Reef transforms into a sea of sperm and eggs. This week billions of animals will reproduce in synchronicity during the annual coral spawning creating an underwater snowstorm. Control one of our underwater robots on the Great Barrier Reef using just your web browser to witness this incredible event right now!

I have spent the last week planning an expedition

I have spent the last week planning an expedition to The Kimberley, Australia for an expedition ship in 2023. It’s been 6 years since I was last in this incredible remote area. Photos will never be able to fully capture the raw beauty of these 2 billion year old rock formations and the plethora of wildlife.

Come check out our latest all-weather robot dive s

Come check out our latest all-weather robot dive site at Green Island on the Great Barrier Reef. It is home to hundreds of different fish species, nemos and our resident turtle Koopa. It's a great place for beginners to learn how to control our robots all while enjoying the wonders of the reef. Visit www.teleport.fish to start your underwater robotic experience. 😊🦈🐢🐠🤙

Bob the Robot was bobbing around on the ocean surf

Bob the Robot was bobbing around on the ocean surface in only 1 meter of water after a long day of showing people from around the world the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef.

It is a beautiful calm, clear day and Bob is floating less than 10 meters behind our support vessel. The support vessel is covered in ‘Keep Clear – Research’ signs, dive flags and is also kilometres away from the nearest dive site or island.

Suddenly, Bob was hit by something going so fast the security cameras only registered it as a blur. Some silly idiot had not only hit the coral reef at full speed in their boat but had also cut Bob’s tether violently in the process, ripping the lower half of Bob’s frame clean off.

Although this was not the end for Bob, as he is one very very tough robot!

The silly idiot who hit Bob sped off without rescuing Bob from the water, so Bob continued to float against all odds, now untethered, bobbing from reef to reef off Cairns as the tides and currents dictated.

Thankfully, almost 24 hours later an awesome fisherman found Bob floating across the shipping channel and immediately called the emergency number on the robot.

On Bob’s return to land, he underwent emergency surgery to replace his broken frame and attach a new tether.

We are happy to announce that Bob survived his emergency surgery and will be back out on the coral reef soon – ready to show more people the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef!

I made a short promotional video for my business that enables anyone from around the world to drive a underwater robot on the Great Barrier Reef using just their web browser.

Any comments or suggestions? 🤔

This is what 4 degrees of cooling to our planet looks like. (20,000BP) I wonder what 4 degrees of warming looks like? 🤔

It's a beautiful day on the Great Barrier Reef for a robot dive!

Get in quick before the bad weather this weekend sends our robots back to land. 😉

Please share with your friends and family! 👍
