Friends of MOBY,

Following Glosten recent announcement of our collaboration, we wanted to share a brief update.

We’re collaborating with Glosten, a naval architecture and marine engineering firm behind some of the most technically demanding marine projects ever undertaken. Their work spans from engineering the Glomar Explorer, a CIA commissioned vessel built to secretly recover a sunken Soviet submarine from the deep ocean during the Cold War, to the recent autonomous offshore landing platform used by Blue Origin for rocket recovery.

Together, we’re focused on a core challenge in deep ocean operations: reliably recovering harvested payloads and robotic fleets from depths of up to 6,000 meters.

Drawing on decades of marine salvage and offshore operations experience, the Glosten team evaluated recovery concepts and assessed both technical and economic feasibility.

The findings from this work are guiding MOBY’s approach to deep ocean recovery operations and how these systems can be executed reliably at depth.

We’re excited about what this work is enabling and look forward to what comes next.

More to come,

MOBY Robotics
