There's a robot roaming the ocean floor. It’s exploring the world that exists under the sea. It's going to be there for months exploring with its sensors and surfacing only once in awhile to send results to a lab and to reposition itself.

So if you're ever scuba diving near the Virgin Islands, look out for a new kind of creature! This robot can work in any weather or condition. It doesn't get tired and it doesn't need to eat. It runs on heat energy that it gets from the water that it swims in. How cool is that?

What do you think it will find? Scientists hope that it will tell them more about ocean circulation.
