wires ! There are cameras in the room so the crew can make sure the right wire is being deployed and that everything is working ok .
The winch room @ Jeremy Young
The most impressive part of the tour ( besides all these adjustments to help us scientists ) was the engine room itself . There were pipes everywhere and big diesel engines that led into the propeller room where you could see the propellers spinning and moving us forward . It is also one of the few places on the ship where there isn ’ t a tank of water between you and the ocean .
That concludes my summary of what I found most interesting- I hope this has given you an insight into the thought that goes into designing a research vessel for scientists !
