SeaOrbiter will raise awareness of the essential role of the ocean in the heart of the planetary system and it's impact in our daily life being at the same time the motor and the lung of the planet.
SeaOrbiter will inspire people to act for the preservation of the blue planet. SeaOrbiter will give rise to new vocations among the young generations and keep alive among the younger generation the spirit of the New Frontier dream. SeaOrbiter will become the symbol of one of the greatest human adventures of the 21st century made of pioneers who go beyond to find solutions to the critical challenges mankind will face in the decades and centuries to come.

A model of SeaOrbiter about 3.50 meters has been tested under all sea, wind and current conditions at the Marintek, the largest marine simulation laboratory in Europe located in Norway. All the tests have been successful. The shipyard process is now ready to be launched, the last thing we need in order to do so is your financial help.
To increase the range of SeaOrbiter and be able to collect date simultaneously in all the oceans, there are plans to increase the fleet and sail a vessel in every ocean. The SeaOrbite rproject will then consist of a formidable "network of Sentinels".
