Oh this is a cool time lapse. Our Chief Technologist Steve took video this leaving the L/B Robert scientific drill ship (yup, that's it way up above the water!) on the transport vessel the Gaspee. #ScientificOceanDrilling #Expedition501 🌊

Expeditions can be weeks or months long and accommodate crew who are their for a short time to perform their speciality. How does the crew switch out? From the supply ship, which is much smaller than the expedition vessels, so a Billy Pugh basket is loaded with the crew for the transfer. Hang on!

The latest #TalesFromTheDeep episode on the StoryCorps Archive is from Carl Brenner, director of the U.S. Science Support Program for scientific ocean drilling. Take a listen to Carl's background -you might be surprised at what he majored in at college- and his leadership role in this community. 🌊⚒️

"What scientific ocean drilling has done for the nation and globally is yielded a staggering amount of information about Earth history"

“The breadth of the science that is done in this program is pretty exciting and you don't have to be a trained marine geologist to appreciate that.” This quote comes from Carl Brenner, the director of...

“I just want these students to have met somebody, anybody,” she said. “It doesn’t have to be me but somebody who’s a practicing scientist who shares their particular disability, so that they can at least say, ‘Okay, if I really want to be a scientist, it can be done.’”

Hurricanes are going to hurricane in August...but storms are running into unnaturally warm oceans. That warmth, boosted by climate change, can supercharge intensity. 🧵A quick thread on what to monitor with Tropical Storm #Erin ⤵️

It's no secret that deep sea fish are terrifying. I mean, look at this guy. He's clearly straight out of someone's nightmare. But have you ever wondered why so many deep sea fish are red? Like, what's the deal with that? Turns out, I'm gonna make you learn some physics for #FishOfTheWeek 1/3

A deep sea fish straight out of nightmares. He looks almost skeletal, with small, sunken black eyes and extremely long, needle-like teeth. He is entirely red, even his teeth
