The so-called Scarlet Knight robot has this week completed a 225-day journey from the shores of New Jersey to the sandy beaches of Baiona in Spain — fittingly the same port Christopher Columbus returned to after his first visit to the Americas — aided only by a battery, ocean currents and its innate intelligence.
