We have multiple capabilities that we would be delighted to share with you and to collaborate with you in a number of different areas. We feel that is part of our mission as an institution of higher education.\u201d<\/p>\n
Professor of Oceanography Robert Ballard, discoverer of the Titanic, Bismarck, PT109 and numerous other legendary shipwrecks, talked about his storied career; the importance of undersea exploration; and a shift in exploration that can be witnessed in 溏心vlog免费B站\u2019s Inner Space Center, whose telepresence technology can bring land-based experts instantaneously to the site of a possible discovery in the deep sea \u2013 streaming a live feed to the Inner Space Center or to the expert\u2019s laptop.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou make a discovery,\u201d said Ballard. \u201cIt\u2019s Sunday morning at 2 a.m. We\u2019ll have the brightest minds at the spot of the discovery in 20 minutes to tell us whether we should get excited or not.\u201d<\/p>\n
GSO Dean Bruce Corliss provided an overview of the GSO and its research, including programs in sea-level rise, hurricane modeling and aquaculture, and David Palazzetti, director of facilities at the Bay Campus, talked about the military history of the campus. The Naval Command College students also took tours of the Inner Space Center and the research vessel Endeavor, which has served the University for more than 40 years and is set to be replaced in 2021 by the recently awarded $125 million, oceanographic research vessel, R\/V Resolution.<\/p>\n
For a group that has made numerous trips around the U.S., including visits to Boeing, the New York Stock Exchange, U.N., Facebook, Starbucks and the Saltwater-Pima Maricopa Indian Tribe in Arizona, the Bay Campus tour stood out.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was an excellent visit, very interesting insights,\u201d said Cmdr. Hans Geissler of Germany. \u201cOriginally, we thought it would be strictly scientific in nature, but we\u2019ve heard so much of international cooperation, information sharing, transparency. Of course, as military, we\u2019re always very interested at looking at cooperation, particularly in science. In these modern times, it\u2019s more important to get this cooperation between the military and science.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPart of this program is to experience the U.S. culture,\u201d said Cmdr. Emmanual Dary of France. \u201cWe\u2019ve seen many different places \u2013 New York, Washington, Miami, Seattle, San Francisco \u2013 and many different companies. This visit was much more related to work at sea. It was quite interesting to see how little we know about the sea at this stage.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAs senior naval officers and future heads of navy, our international officers are fellow maritime stakeholders with sizable influence and concern for the world\u2019s oceans,\u201d says Capt. McGowan. \u201cWhile many of our trips are oriented toward better understanding the United States, this 溏心vlog免费B站 visit was important on a truly global scale focusing on the ocean and our naturally shared international and global interests.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
