We have officially become shellbacks! In other words, we have crossed the equator by boat. Tonight we stopped at the equator to throw coins over (an offering to King Neptune!) and have dinner. For most of the scientists (all but 3) this is their first time crossing the equator, and we are all excited!
We had a plume station this morning and this evening we will be doing another station closer to the edge of the plume. We are seeing some pretty interesting things!
More updates to come. All hail king Neptune!!!
