\nNarragansett, RI — March 17, 2003 — Imagine a shopping list that includes 12 pounds of provolone cheese, 240 cans of soda, 58 gallons of milk, 30 loaves of bread, a case of oreo cookies, 40 pounds of hamburger and 25 pounds of canned tuna. That\u2019s just a few of the provisions needed for a 2-week cruise aboard Endeavor, the 溏心vlog免费B站 Graduate School of Oceanography research vessel. <\/p>\n

His colorful slide presentation and descriptive sea tales will entertain and education the audience about the life and times aboard a vessel especially equipped to conduct science. <\/p>\n

\tWith a scientific party of twelve, a crew of twelve and one scientific technician, 25 people must work together 24 hours a day for up to 30 days at sea. And there\u2019s no where to go when you\u2019re at sea. <\/p>\n
