The Canpac Valkyrie recently departed from Port Alberni, British Columbia, on a groundbreaking mission to identify plastic hotspots in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch using drones, AI, and modeling. The crew, including scientists and engineers from The Ocean Cleanup, aimed to create a "weather forecast" for plastic, guiding the ship through areas of high plastic density as part of their Smart Steering Strategy.
