Set sail with LSU geology professor Phil Bart and a team of students - both undergrads and graduates - on board the NATHANIEL B. PALMER. See what they saw as they left McMurdo Station, and set off for the Ross Sea, to study evidence left by ancient ice sheets which may help predict the rate and extent of future sea level rise. Philip Bergeron, one of the undergrads, reads a page from his journey detailing their scientific adventure.

  • The reason for all the Louisiana posters and references to New Orleans is not because it was dry docked there, but that it was built in that area. The company that owns and built the vessel is in Galliano, LA. And the vessel is not stationed in LA. It is operated from there.
