"Humans are compelled to explore (at least some of us) -- we are drawn to shed light on the unknown. The universe is full of mysteries but we need to go no further than the 3/4 of our planet that lies beneath the depths of the oceans to face some of the greatest challenges of the unknown. Having the opportunity to contribute to such worthy endeavors is very satisfying and no matter what the outcome -- the process itself is an awful lot of fun!"
