AND THEY’RE OFF! Last evening (Thursday) students and faculty from OIMB filled most of the small plane leaving the local airport to connect to their night flight to Mississippi!  Do you think they got much sleep?  Today the scientific party joins the ship, the RV Seward Johnson, in Gulfport. They’ll spend the day setting up the on-board lab and getting gear in order. Then early this evening the ship wil depart!  Check back for pictures and news of how it is going!
