The ship was previously known as the VOS Satisfaction[2] and previously operated as a subsea support vessel to support underwater diving- and ROV-operations as well as some salvage projects. In 2022 it was modified to provide space for scientists as well as lifting and sonar gear.[2]

The ship arrived in the Cook Islands in February 2023.[3] It was named in March 2023 after a public competition.[1][4] It began its first survey expedition in March 2023.[5] Cook Islands Prime Minister Mark Brown accompanied the ship for the first stage of its voyage, mapping the seabed from Rarotonga to the Nga-Pu-Toru before docking in Aitutaki.[6]

In November 2023 it began an expedition to explore the seabed between Rarotonga and Aitutaki.[7]
