Doomsday fish study inspires quiet ocean-monitoring robots

A new study on the oarfish, often called the doomsday fish, is being used as a blueprint for designing quiet ocean-monitoring robots. Researchers, reportedly at Cornell, are studying the fish's biomimetic propulsion to build machines that can move through the ocean with minimal noise and disturbance, potentially improving underwater surveillance and marine research.

Why now: The unusual link between a deep-sea fish tied to folklore and modern robotics has drawn attention to the study.
