A Wes Anderson Film about a washed up Oceanographer.
Pictured is the NOAAS Okeanos Explorer (R 337) an exploratory vessel for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Its focus is on gathering scientific information about oceans for the public as well as for scientific uses. As much as 95% of the ocean remains unexplored.
The ship is equipped with cameras and will provide real-time viewing of the ocean floor for scientists and for the public.
This is a pioneering use of what NOAA calls "telepresence technology". The Okeanos Explorer is the only vessel owned by the U.S. government that is dedicated to exploring the seabed and ocean crust. Its mission has been compared to the lunar landing.
