The Cornell University's 'Nova' 2009 Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV); about to be weighed and hoisted into the water. Red-shirted team-mates guard it like mother hens; as well they might. Victorious in 2003; they have been skunked ever since; up till now. This test vehicle has been in the water every day since May. SPAWAR Transducer Test Facility; San Diego; 12th International Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Competition; sponsored by the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International
