Summary

For our first research mission after Shakedown, OceanX welcomed researchers from the University of Bergen aboard for one jam packed week. From studying velvet belly lanternsharks to bioluminscent sea stars, we had our hands full following along all the action. Take a peek into this mission as we chase after schools of tuna in our helicopter and launch our smaller boats from OceanXplorer to study climate saving kelp forests. And somehow we managed to have enough time to get a surprise visit from a family of fin whales.
