The Elizabeth Swann cruising along the Amazon to Manaus
Hal is the onboard supercomputer that manages the ship's systems, security and safety features. Hal is an artificially intelligent AI crew member, self learning, and friends with John and Dan, But especially close with John, who is able to communicate via his CyberCore™ nano-computer and BioCore™ brain implant. Hal is interactive with The Ark, onboard DNA database.
Hal was named after Stanley Kubrick and Arthur C. Clarke's character in 2001: Space Oddysey.
The 'Elizabeth Swann' is a solar assisted, hydrogen powered ship that is thought to be the fastest in the world, and the most advanced technologically. She was inspired by the character, Elizabeth Swann, in the Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean movies, (played by Keira Knightley). Though, we know of a lady of the same name who lives in England.
The Swann is equipped with a stunning array of ocean instruments, that makes her invaluable for underwater surveys and other surface marine tasks, under the command of her rugged ocean conservationist captain: John Storm. A man of many talents, who becomes physically and mentally enhanced during his adventures.
The Elizabeth Swann is autonomously piloted by Captain Nemo, named after the Captain of the Nautilus in Jules Verne's classic: 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. A stand alone unmanned navigation system.
