Science and technology troops from the U.S. and Australian
Summary
Science and technology troops from the U.S. and Australian militaries filtered the water on the left using the Seldon Waterbox, a portable water-filtration system during Talisman Sabre 2011. The water on the right is straight from a pond in Shoalwater Bay Training Area. According to Seldon Technologies, the suitcase-sized device they developed under the auspices of the U.S. Air Force can effectively turn any river, lake or stream into a potable water source by removing 99.9999% of bacteria and 99.99% of viruses through its carbon nanotube filtration system. Talisman Sabre 2011 is an exercise designed to train U.S. and Australian forces to plan and conduct combined task force operations to improve combat readiness and interoperability on a variety of missions from conventional conflict to peacekeeping and humanitarian assistance efforts.
