Scientists have launched a study in which they send marine robots into the heart of cyclones.

The unprecedented missions aim to improve researchers' understanding of how hurricanes rapidly intensify into monstrous storms with devastating winds and deadly flooding.

Recently, the innovative collaboration between the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and Saildrone, the company that engineers innovative sail drones, sent a powerful robot into the “heart” of Hurricane Fiona, the raging tropical storm that battered Puerto Rico and now heading towards the east coast of Canada.

The 7-meter long "Saildrone" faced waves 15 meters high and winds exceeding 160 km/h, which you can see in the published footage.

This is exactly why these machines were created: They collect data in all parts of storms, including the eye of the hurricane – where the winds are strongest.

Warm ocean waters up to 26 degrees Celsius are fuel for storms. Floating drones are already expected to help researchers better understand how the oceans transfer this heat and energy to storms.
