The new technology, developed by Calgary's NXT Energy Solutions, has the ability to pinpoint prospective oil and gas reservoirs and to determine exactly what's still there from a plane moving at 500 kilometers an hour at an altitude of 3,000 meters.

This'll be no doubt modified and developed for military application. Submarines wont last long in the future.
Unless they can modify gravity somehow... which may be just a lil difficult.
Gosh i'm surprised I thought Argentina invented this?

Cool... So we get to know in breef if VM is a load of hot air or not

I find this hard to believe this could ever be used to find a submarine.
5 - So it can detect subtle changes but not a giant piece of metal.

Doesnt mean I wont use the fork.
You'll just have time to read the menu before the waiter delivers the bill.

Bills not too steep for commerce.
