Stole this from another sub (don't know how to cross-post) but it's an interesting application of sailing.

So the robots get to sail the world while I'm stuck here on a zoom call? This is not the future we wanted.

But more seriously, this seems like a really good application of autonomous systems.

I'd like to do something like this with autonomous dynamic soaring aircraft if there's a science need for that kind of flying.
