we made it on gizmodo
This is a project we're doing with Office of Naval Research. The photo was on the Navy home page a week or two ago and a Gizmodo writer evidently saw it and wrote a piece. Cool to get press that you didn't have to chase...

 Congrats, nonetheless!

I'd like to know more, but if you tell me you're going to have to kill me.

super cool. You may be lucky to work with really smart folks, but I'm sure the folks that you work with are probably also lucky to work with you as well.

That's really cool. And I see 230 stories or repeats - I remember seeing this but can't find the source.

Gizomodo picked it up first - they saw the photo on the Navy photo stream and wrote it up. Then someone from The Verge saw that and called my colleague for an interview. I shot a bunch of photos on Friday and sent those along. Now it gets passed around various feeds, and evidently CNN called the program manager at ONR and they want to do a story. Things happen quickly. Was a good excuse to use my new camera
