The scientific drilling vessel Glomar Challenger began collecting deep-sea core samples in 1968, with JOIDES Resolution in 1985 and Chikyu in 2005 continuing to investigate and expand our knowledge of marine geology and geophysics. Those who have sailed on these ships and mission-specific platforms, and supported the many off- and onshore missions, share stories about their personal and professional experiences with scientific ocean drilling.
