1999 Update

Reprinted from InterRidge News 8.2 (Nov. 1999)

by Lauren S. Mullineaux, Chair and Cara Wilson (InterRidge Coordinator)

An unusual event caught the attention of the Biology Working Group this year: the announcement in April that tourist visits to the Rainbow vent site were being scheduled for October 1999. The cruise organization was being done by Zegrahm DeepSea Voyages, a tour company that has previously conducted tour groups to the Titanic. The platform for the cruises was the Akademik Keldysh with the MIR submersibles.
