Watch the conversation with the scientists of the Nautilus Live Johnston Atoll Expedition
The E/V Nautilus is a 223-foot ocean going research vessel with the mission to explore unknown regions of the ocean seeking out new discoveries in biology, geology, and archaeology. Nautilus is equipped with a team of remotely operated vehicles and high-tech mapping tools that allow it to conduct deep sea exploration to a depth of 13,000 feet. The project was founded in 2008 by Dr. Robert Ballard, the researcher known for finding the wreck of the Titanic and the German battleship Bismarck. In this video, Dr. Ballard talks about the science and the adventure that keeps Nautilus going and teaching us about the great unknown depths of our oceans.
