Autonomous warfare is going underwater.
Lockheed Martin unveiled Lamprey MMAUV – a submersible drone that can attach to ships and submarines, save energy and strike covertly.

A glimpse into the future of naval warfare.

Подводният дрон Lamprey на Lockheed Martin променя правилата на морската война

Автономният Lamprey MMAUV може да се прикрепя към кораби и подводници, да пести енергия и да нанася скрити удари - Паралел

🇺🇸 @LockheedMartin vient de présenter un nouveau drone sous-marin baptisé #Lamprey. L’idée : un engin autonome et modulable, conçu pour des missions discrètes de surveillance, de renseignement et d’actions sur les fonds marins, y compris dans des zones très surveillées.

Sa particularité, selon l’industriel : Lamprey pourrait être transporté jusqu’à la zone d’opérations "accroché" à la coque d’un navire de surface ou d’un sous-marin, puis se détacher pour

🏺🍴 Why did ancient Romans love fermented #fish guts, and why did medieval kings risk their lives for #lamprey pie? It turns out that what we consider weird or gross today was once a vital source of #nutrition and a sign of high status.

What impact are #beavers having on fish? James Macarthur tells us! In Tayside, using #environmental DNA (#eDNA), he found that there was no effect of beavers on #AtlanticSalmon and #lamprey. Beavers also had a positive effect on #EuropeanEel. There was a negative effect of pike on Atlantic salmon #FSBI2025

I remember seeing lamprey on lake trout we used to catch in the Finger Lakes when I was a kid - the stuff of nightmares!!

It's great to hear that they've been successful in significantly reducing their populations!!

How scientists claimed victory over an invasive Great Lakes bloodsucker

The invasive sea lamprey was chomping through the North American region’s native fish, until scientists made a fortuitous discovery.

Neuro-robotic experiments are fascinating. I remember the excitement when this team (almost 25 years ago) connected a lamprey fish’s brain to a robotic system. It was able to move its ‘vehicle’ towards lights. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/1043001.stm

But for obvious reasons, fungi are another thing entirely.

#Scientists find #endangered #lamprey #fish in #Queensland, 1400 km north of its previous known range https://phys.org/news/2024-05-scientists-ancient-endangered-lamprey-fish.html paper: https://www.int-res.com/abstracts/esr/v53/p547-553/

"Prior to this study, the species was widely believed to only live in a few streams along a 170 km stretch of coastline near the #NSW / #Victoria border... With this enormous extension of its geographic range, Australian brook lamprey becomes the only lamprey species in the world to live in truly #tropical waters."

Scientists find ancient, endangered lamprey fish in Queensland, 1400 km north of its previous known range

The Australian brook lamprey (Mordacia praecox) is part of a group of primitive jawless fish. It's up to 15 cm long, with rows of sharp teeth. Surprisingly, it doesn't use these teeth to suck blood like most lamprey species—it's non-parasitic.
