Disclosed herein are acoustic telescope system that include a hydrophone array, a surface buoy, a GPS tracker, a long baseline navigation system, a central processing unit, a data acquisition system, an electrical power architecture, a housing, an electromagnetic stretch hose, a subsurface bouy, an armored electromechanical cable, a hairy fairing, a mooring chain, a mooring controller, a swivel, an anchor, an acoustic release transponder, a receiver, a transmitter, an electronic component, a software component, a transceiver, a transducer, a detector, a mooring, and an antennae. Also, disclosed are methods of using the acoustic telescope system that can include: recognizing with a passive acoustic localization, wherein the passive acoustic localization recovers a signal distortion after traveling through the ocean environment; sampling acoustic pulses received on an hydrophone with separate arrival times; and localizing sound sources with acoustics signal back-propagation to reconstruct a source signature.
