Sea ice edge, Antarctica
A memorable day filled with entertaining visitors on the sea ice edge of Antarctica
>2% of the world's freshwater is found in the Arctic
Two lakes found within the Haughton Impact Structure
The sediment would date back to over 10,000 years.
On the left, is John Glew (1942-2019), a dear friend and mentor who was one incredibly talented scientist-engineer-artist. Learn more about John’s life here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cVCRzh6Lgw. Miss him every day.
There really is no elegant way to do this

This photo was taken during a Watch change (photo credit: Matthew Miller). Leigh and I were catching up on the events over the past 4 hours and the 4 hours ahead of us. One of us was coming on Watch and the other was just leaving their shift. Our watches were 4 hours long and repeated 24/7 for the duration of the cruise.
We put some (personalized) styrofoam cups on the ROVs, and the result after descending more than 2800m into the Pacific Ocean is a tiny, squished cup that has been reduced to this size after being subject to the enormous pressures at depth.
Returning to port in the SF Bay Area. Golden Gate Bridge hovering above us as we return from our research adventures.
The moment when you get close enough to land to pick up a cell signal. (with Nicole Raineault and Matthew Miller, 2019; photo credit OET)

Everyday these incredible professionals casually board, pilot and disembark from ships coming into and out of the port of San Francisco. Here is a video of our SFPort pilot jumping off of the Nautilus after steering our vessel safely out into the open waters of the Pacific. They make it look so easy - and it ain’t!!
