Boaty McBoatface submarine takes NATO-backed quantum tech underwater
Get the Full StoryUK startup Aquark Technologies has used Boaty McBoatface the internet s best-loved submarine to test its quantum sensing technology underwater for the first time. The NATO-backed company put its so-called cold atom system inside the autonomous submarine. Boaty McBoatface then descended to the bottom of a giant indoor tank at the National Oceanography Centre NOC in Southampton. The idea was to test how Aquark s quantum tech which must be completely isolated from external disturbances to function would fare in the temperatures and pressures of an underwater environment.
