Groups of #EXP393 scientists went on tours of the ship yesterday and got to explore the engine room, core technician room, and the bridge! Photo: Tessa Peixoto/ IODP #NSFfunded #explore #ship pic.twitter.com/7ozUT4Xaf2

Water in the sediment cores is a hot commodity amongst the #EXP393 scientists. A non destructive way to extract that water is to use a Rhizon sampler (the syringe is opened to create a vacuum that pulls the water into it).

Another bday on the ship today! While we wait to re-enter a different drill hole we got to have some cake with the birthday girl. #EXP393 Photo: Tessa Peixoto/ IODP #NSFfunded #birthdayparty #ship pic.twitter.com/KKKTrnwT3r

Yesterday

Did you know if you squeeze hard enough (up to 25000lbs of pressure) you can get water out of clay? #EXP393 scientists collect the water trapped inside sediment to study past #ocean chemistry that existed when they were layed down. 📸 Tessa Peixoto/ IODP . . #NSFfunded pic.twitter.com/Qa2f7QES9n

Yesterday

The #ocean floor is a memoir that holds all the stuff that has fallen to the seafloor overtime. The pages are layered and #EXP393 scientists can travel through time by studying #fossils, chemical elements, and minerals found in the layers. 📸 Tessa Peixoto/IODP #NSFfunded pic.twitter.com/mzHxbsRadW
