We are excited to announce our partnership with @NOAA to develop low-cost deep #oceantechnology, create a targeted and strategic plan for exploring the deep sea, and train a broader and more diverse community of #ocean explorers. Read: tinyurl.com/odl-noaa-news

ALT ODL Director of Engineering Dr. Jessica Sandoval (left) and ODL President and founder Dr. Katy Croff Bell (right) work on attaching a low-cost camera system and light modules to a prototype weighted lander configuration made of PVC pipe during deployment and recovery trials in the waters off Rhode Island. Accessible deployment and recovery systems are critical to the development of low-cost deep seas systems.
By lowering the cost-prohibitive and logistical barriers, we will see an unprecedented acceleration in the collection of new #oceandata to help fully characterize the deep ocean for science-based decision-making worldwide. @oceanexplorer Read the full MOU: tinyurl.com/odl-noaa-mou

Happy #OceanExplorationDay! Despite being largest living space on planet & playing a vital role in our everyday lives & Earth’s ecosystem, the ocean remains largely unexplored. Exploration allows us to increase understanding to effectively manage, conserve, use ocean resources.
This #OceanExplorationDay, while celebrating the history of those who dived into the unknown, we must look to the future and how we wish to contribute to the sector.
