Comments
We deployed the Continuous Plankton Recorder (CPR) for the first time yesterday afternoon. The CPR is one of the longest running ocean experiments conducted from the Aurora Australis.
Most people have found their sea legs.
The two arts fellows have begun the laborious job of scanning the entire ship for their 3D voyage simulation.
Cheers
Andy and Amy
