    Streaming the abyss: ROV Taurus takes science to new depths
    May 7 2025
    As big as minivans and armed with long umbilical cords, remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) are cutting-edge pieces of technology that push the boundaries of marine science. Meet Taurus, a new 4,000-meter capable ROV operated by USF and the Florida Institute of Oceanography (FIO). This deep-diving machine is helping researchers learn more about the deep ocean that very few have seen. Hear more in episode six of The Rising Tides Podcast featuring special guest Nicole Raineault, associate director of research and technology at FIO.
