ROV-Maker-Day-1

ROV Maker Day.  On October 2, Deep-C visited the Cornerstone Learning Community for a day-long event designed to introduce fifth-graders to ocean science and the use of Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) for deep sea research.  The students had the chance to hear from Deep-C scientists. They also built and drove their own ROVs.  The event was hosted by Dauphin Island Sea Lab (disl.org).
