Image of The Day caption:
Fireworks light up the sky above the Pacific Ocean on New Year's Eve 2006. Actually, the red streak was a flare fired during a safety drill. Crew members on the research vessel Atlantis instructed the science party in how to use the flares for sending a distress signal.
R/V Atlantis Cruise AT15-14, Chief Scientist: Lauren Mullineaux.
November 11, 2006 to January 5, 2007
The two cruises in 2006 include a tracer release (first cruise) and survey (second cruise). The survey should be initiated roughly 40 days after release, so the 2 cruises need a 2-3 week separation between them.
