On #IODP Expedition 405, Nur Schuba documented what it was like to live, work, and learn on the #Chikyu through comics. Now, the full collection is available at https://t.co/ptHNzY3XKL.
Check it out, and follow @nurschuba for more Chikyu comics from Expedition 502e!
Another Chikyu photo dump:
1 - Nice weather from a day ago
2 - Strong winds and rain from today
3 - Some work for the next expedition with sonar.
4 - Rat-tail fish having a party at 5.5 km (maybe curious about the drill pipe/underwater TV?)

Day 5. We have safety completed most of the tasks for data downloading, reprograming, battery-changing, and deployment preparation for both C0019D (57 sensors) and C0019Q (128 sensors) within only one day! (Yes, everyone was exhausted!)

I'm on Chikyu again for #IODP Expedition 502e. We're here to retrieve, maintain, reprogram, redeploy the thermistors from two borehole observatories from last year's expedition (405).
That's 185 sensors in total!
