Today I am showing you pictures of the engine room. One picture shows Mike Gowan at the computer controls. In another picture, you see the large yellow propulsion engines. There is also a picture of the smaller ship service engine. One picture shows large silver round things- that is the evaporator. Finally, a picture of the bow thruster. You can see that it is round at the bottom, reminding you that it works in a full 360 degree circle.

Note for educators: Although Jennifer and Jane's reseearch cruise ended, the EPIC research continues. Please use this web site, Jennifer and Jane's lesson plans, daily logs, the videos, and the photos to educate your students about climate, El Niño, and scientific research in general.

Consider this web site, as well as the TAO web site, a resource for teaching your students.

Many organizations and countries are involved in funding the EPIC Experiment. Primary U. S. funding is provided by The National Science Foundation and The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
