What secrets lurk in the depths of the Caspian Sea, and what adventures await us on land as we prepare for another voyage of scientific exploration? The next month will have plenty to offer in the way of adventure, and technical challenge as well.
I didn't wake up till the plane touched down in Moscow. After several weeks of work exploring the ocean floor off an exotic island ( read: Side Scan Survey off Manhattan ) I find myself again traveling with a group of scientists to a distant land, carry-on bags stuffed with enough electronics to back the line at airport security out past the Starbucks.

Hi. I saw Ken yesterday at a shipwreck conference in Wall, NJ (New Jersey Historical Divers Association ). He gave a nice lecture, 1 of 4 speakers, and touched upon the Laos project. We spoke quite a bit before and after the conference -- A very nice event with a good turnout. I just revisited your last 10 blog posts. I check it every couple of months. As always, keep up the good work. Good to see that ASI is doing lots of philanthropy work. Let me know if you're in NJ or FL, and maybe I'll see you. Right now I'm in PA.

Hey Daria and David, thanks for your comments. I learned a lot of Russian in the last 3 weeks at sea in the Caspian, and I hope to learn even more when we head off shore again. Just a few days to touch the earth and get used to the land not moving under my feet, and then we'll be back at it.

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
