2021 Atlantic Hurricane Mission: 24 Hours in Hurricane Sam

SOUND ON 🔊

Follow Saildrone Explorer SD 1045 through the eye of a category 4 hurricane. This incredible "point of view" footage was captured before, during, and after Hurricane Sam passes over the vehicle in the Atlantic Ocean.

SD 1045 was approximately 450 nautical miles northeast of Puerto Rico when it encountered Hurricane Sam, which would prove to be the most powerful hurricane of the 2021 season.

This video was made possible by NOAA's Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory and Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory with the Saildrone team.
