Program Information
Title:
Come Explore the JOIDES Resolution...a research vessel on its way to Antarctica!
Description:
Join us for a chance to talk to scientists and other crew members via interactive videoconferencing on the amazing 470 foot long ocean drilling research vessel JOIDES Resolution (JR). You will be able to see and talk to an international group of marine geologists and technicians LIVE while they are out at sea, learn what they are researching, and get a peek at the research vessel that has been so important to increasing our understanding of the seafloor, plate tectonics, and past climate change. If you don't know the JR, you should! This is a great way to meet the ship, her scientists and crew - many of whom are from Texas. To learn more about the JR and to prepare for our live event, see http://joidesresolution.org
