Strong winds the past few days have meant we have been sheltering in Galway Bay, but still enabled an excellent recovery of @Eir_OOS @MetEireann @IrishLights Finnis wave rider by #RVCelticExplorer @RVMarineInst and time to learn #adcp codas software @ICARUS_Maynooth @Maynoothgeog

En route to new habitats and much science aboard the #RVCelticExplorer for #CE23010 led by @DrShmoo! Excited to contribute to the work onboard focusing on scientifically managing and protecting vulnerable deep sea ecosystems (sponge fields!). Also on the look out for cetaceans 🐋

We’ve had a lot of stowaways on this research cruise including ~ 10 racing pigeons that were released in Cork in the hope that they’d make it to Northern Ireland but didn’t.They found their way on the #RVCelticExplorer instead, where they’ve been fed and looked after by the crew!

Pheronema sponges look like big hairy bird’s nests or furry one-eyed monsters. What do you think? #CE13010 #RVCelticExplorer @RVMarineInst

ROV Holland 1 is our best bud on this expedition as we peer into the depths to answer important questions. ROVs are tools for looking at the seafloor and transmit video live all the way up to the ship - so we get to watch everything as it unfolds! #RVCelticExplorer #CE23010

Is there any better way to travel around Ireland than by the #RVCelticExplorer? . Now for the serious business of mobilisation 💪

The group photo marks the end of #CE23010. Hugely successful contribution to @challenger_150. #RVCelticExplorer is such an excellent science platform. Massive thanks to @MarineInst and our truly international science party

Good morning! #dumboctopus are so named because of their ‘ear’ like fins that they use, along with their webbed arms, to swim through the ocean.They are foraging predators, and feast on pelagic inverts that swim above the seafloor. #CE23010 #RVCelticExplorer @RVMarineInst #socute

@KyranGraves deserves all the joy! He predicted we’d find plenty deep sea coral here and he was RIGHT! Look at those happy science faces! So exciting! #CE23010 #RVCelticExplorer
