A fleet of autonomous vessels backed by the US Navy has been launched off California to hunt down Chinese ghost ships. San Diego startup Seasats crafted the special boats to perform intelligence, reconnaissance and surveillance missions at sea without a human operator onboard. The 12-foot skiff, the Lightfish, has the ability to communicate the coordinates of China’s ghost fleet, track weather, signal submarines, and spot smugglers and illegal fishing operations.
