Update
E/V Nautilus has exited the US EEZ and is now in transit from the Howland and Baker Island vicinity, westward toward Kosrae. With calm seas ranging in depth from 4500 to 5800 meters, seafloor mapping, data collection, as well as seabird surveying continues today.  The crew will also be on the lookout for marine life as a pod of short finned pilot whales was spotted yesterday.
