That ROV's at 2100 meters, now on it's way up. It's ll take over an hour to surface, but they're leaving the cameras on to see if then can photo various squamous and/or rugose horrors up in the water column.
The Okeanos Explorer sailed into Balwmer last September for the Star Spangled Banner anniversary celebration, along with a lot of other neat ships. Nothing else looks quite like it. It's an incredibly capable, state of the art R/V and we should all be proud.
Peripheral sister story: She was kind enough to send me a gift [instead of the cash beer money I would have preferred] So the company, via ebay, sent me an email : Using the link below, please take a minute to leave us positive feedback for your purchase.
On the Okeanos Explorer, there is an integrated control room for operating the multibeam, ROV and telepresence communication equipment. Having the screens and computers permanently wired to the ship makes it more efficient to sustain long-term exploration in remote areas of the world.
Cool! Thanks!
Yer welcome! They're out there 'till the end of September, lucky sods, so they'll be lots more dives.
The quality on youtube seems a little better. At least for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rk6SI07jqcc
Yeah, thanks. I bounced my resolution up the 720p on the Home Page, but I think YouTube looks a bit sharper.
That poster will be another Xmas gift for my niece

Diving again tomorrow! WOOHOO
I envy your beautiful job!
we should set you up with a cool one too. The missus once considered oceanography, long ago. Sadly did not pursue it.
I can't wait to meter!

Probably be a while before it gets to Tucson.
Yuma first probably.
Hopefully |no flies|
Flies ain't shit. Listen to an RV-er [ hi sis ! ] whose ride is covered with tiny mesquite leaves and pollen .
Worse than Hitler I tells ya.

"everything about the purchase was great, except for the nagging about leaving a good review"
by 3:10?
Dive Super is a pretty damn cool job title.
I'm confused. The bible doesn't say much about the biome below about ~2500 meters.
