Yellow submarine goes missing off Queensland

Yellow submarine goes missing off Queensland

But unlike the one immortalised in the 1960's Beatles hit, nobody lives in this one.

And nobody ever will - it's far too small.

So small, in fact, that the scientists who have lost it hope it may get washed ashore or perhaps turn up in a fisherman's net.

The $500,000 unmanned research vessel, technically a remote-controlled Integrated Marine Observing System named AUV Sirius, is operated by the University of Sydney's Australian Centre for Field Robotics (ACFR).
