Join us in celebrating the successful return of the JOIDES Resolution with an evening of tales from THEN AND NOW.
The scientific research vessel JOIDES Resolution is returning to Lyttelton after two months in the Ross Sea, with new discoveries on ice sheet and ocean dynamics over the last 20 million years.
This voyage follows the GLOMAR Challenger, which visited the same port 45 years ago when undertaking the first expeditions to the Ross Sea and Southern Ocean.
