The Navy’s leading high-performance computing services and support provider officially added a powerful new machine to its arsenal: a supercomputer named Nautilus.

With this new addition unveiled this week, Defense Department scientists and engineers now have a total of six supercomputers and associated, advanced resources to access via the Navy DOD Supercomputing Resource Center, or DSRC. It’s funded through the department’s High-Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP).

“Nautilus will support thousands of users from various communities in the DOD — chief among them Naval Oceanography,” Navy DSRC Director Christine Cuicchi told DefenseScoop in an email on Thursday.

The massive system is housed at the Stennis Space Center in Mississippi, where the Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command is headquartered.

Open for use or misuse?  I'm sure the public was made aware of only a small portion of its potential.  I'll bet it can be used for other purposes, like spying on American citizens and who would know enough to stop the abuse?  Brandon?

Why is it necessary for us to make EVERYTHING our military does public knowledge?
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
