I'm on board the ship. Loading was a bit of a gong show which I guess is to be expected. The gov't scientists have a containerized lab, so we had to wait a while for the crane to get that loaded. We were the first group of uni scientist to get our stuff onboard after that though so shouldn't complain.
The lab is huge-actually for that matter our cabin is huge too. One of my PI's and a grad student from the other lab came over with us to help set up. I was able to help some but mostly talked to the PI about how everything works and is hooked up. We have the mass spec set up and running-very fancy. This is a totally different world of field science as I've ever done so should be interesting. Amazing how much crap is necessary when you're not limited to what will fit in a backpack.
I haven't taken any pictures but will try to tomorrow before we head out. As long as we're docked I can up load images but after that none till we get back.
