This month the Alvin Submerisble celebrated its 60th anniversary this past summer! Its recieved many upgrades over the years but in its essence is the same sub thats been inspiring and facilitating new discoveries for over half a century now. Follow @whoi.ocean for more info about how Alvin came to be and all the amazing work thats been done because of its invention. I can’t believe I get to help spread the word about this incredible piece of innovation only a few months after my own first dive to seafloor of the East Pacific Rise- a memory that will no doubt last a lifetime.

Five new hydrothermal vents and a never before seen lava lake (since cooled and solidified into mid ocean ridge basalt) was discovered by the scientists and crew on the #EPRlavawatch cruise this past February and March- it was such an incredible honor to be a part of this amazing research expedition and I’m so genuinely proud of playing a part in sharing the work being done by these incredible people. When working together so many new discoveries are possible and this cruise showed how much can be accomplished!

Come explore the East Pacific Rise! This is a region of the earth where two tectonic plates are diverging, allowing volcanoes to form along the plate boundary. The heat from these volcanoes allows the formation of incredible hydrothermal vent colonies like those seen here!
