Status: In Port
NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer is in port in Honolulu, Hawai‘i, following the successful completion of the 2026 American Samoa Mapping + Transit expedition. Our next expedition will take place on October 28-November 16 and will focus on demonstrating, testing, and evaluating emerging and existing technologies such as autonomous underwater vehicles for exploring the ocean.
What Are You Seeing?
When Okeanos Explorer is underway on an expedition, this page will broadcast streams from the ship. What is being shown on the different video streams may change depending on the exploration and operations at hand.
Note that occasionally on the feeds, you will see two red dots; these laser points are 10 centimeters (almost four inches) apart and are used by scientists to determine the sizes of things that they are seeing.

What Are You Hearing?
Audio is only available during dives, when the remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) are in the water. On all 3 streams, audio from science participants is available on the right audio channel, while audio from the ROV pilots is available on the left audio channel.
