Chikyu is the first riser-equipped scientific drilling vessel in the world. Chikyu is Japans contribution to the multiple platforms IODP operates. The ships operations are managed by Japans Center for Deep Earth Exploration (CDEX), a department of JAMSTEC, the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology. A large-scale model of the Chikyu is featured in the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History in Washington, DC, providing an exciting look inside the ship.*
