A young Kris as photographed by Clark Lubbs. Kris Scheppe wants to sail around the world, dispite the fact that he's legally Blind. I call that an adventurous spirit! But I already knew that Kris had Exploration in mind when he came aboard the RV Discoverer as a crew member years ago.

In the future, Roving Data Buoys as big as islands will sail autonomously through troubled oceans, driven by new sail technology, powered by natural forces, cleaning and revitalizing ocean dead zones and creating habitat that nurtures sea life while communicating data back to land via satellite on the state of our seas. And I want to build the first one... |
My Name is Eric and My Job is Scientific Exploration.
That means I'm lucky enough to join expeditions to excavate sunken cities, climb volcanoes, find missing bombs, and Sail old research vessels, while searching for the mysteries of the natural world. Categories
