AdventureScience

Adventure science is about getting outside, exploring the world, and understanding nature in a scientific way. This can be in your back yard, or in the most remote region you can imagine. Adventure scientists explore the world in a low impact manner, using non-motorized means when possible to make new discoveries. The concept of adventure science was developed by Dr. Simon Donato to solve and explore nature's mysteries.

The current adventure is the Search for Steve Fossett. On September 3, 2007, Steve Fossett, the multi-millionaire record-breaking aviator, went missing when his single engine plane disappeared in Nevada. A month later, the official search was called off. As summer approaches in 2008, a team led by Dr. Simon Donato will tackle the Sierra Nevada Mountains to find the wreckage and put closure to this mystery.
