Notes

When Oden finally reaches the scientists' first target site on the Gakkel Ridge, they will throw every vehicle, instrument, and sensor at it to look for and study hydrothermal vents. All those instruments and sensors will collect a multitude of data. Today, two graduate students, Taichi Sato from the University of Tokyo (left), and Claire Willis (right), a MIT/WHOI Joint Program student, were given the important task of collecting and archiving all these data. Together with Hanu Singh, WHOI engineer and co-principal investigator of the expedition, they find the shipboard equivalent of a quiet bench to organize the data-archiving system before the torrent of information starts streaming in.
