Dear Diary, We did a thing! Not only did we surpass the previous world record for the deepest hole drilled into the mantle (200m), we just passed 1000m! We’re only in 860 meters of water, so there is more of the drill string under the sea floor than in the ocean 😱 While there’s a moratorium on the data for 2 years so these scientists can publish their work, it has been really cool to share with school groups that this is an expedition they’ll be reading about in textbooks one day 😎 Even the scientists have no idea what they uncovered in this sample… How cool to watch the science unfolding in front of us!
