Ballard, Founder and Director of the Center for Ocean Exploration, Graduate School of Oceanography/University of Rhode Island; Founder and President of the Ocean Exploration Trust and Senior Scientist Emeritus, Woods Hole Oceanographic InstitutionWhat does the future of ocean exploration look like? Deep-sea explorer Robert D. Ballard, famous for the discovery of hydrothermal vents, “black smokers,” and the wreck of the RMS /Titanic/, will discuss the history and future of ocean exploration technologies. From the earliest manned deep-diving submarines to the latest remotely operated vehicle (ROV) systems that use satellite technology to transmit data in real time, technology has increasingly made interactive ocean exploration a reality. Ballard will highlight past scientific achievements in ocean exploration and outline the opportunities ahead for using advanced tele-presence technologies.Free and open to the publicFree event parking available at the 52 Oxford Street Garage [1].[1] [http://map.harvard.edu/?ctrx=760081.5&ctry=2963729.5&level=9&layers=Cam…](http://map.harvard.edu/?ctrx=760081.5&ctry=2963729.5&level=9&layers=Campus%20Base%20and%20Buildings%2CMap%20Text)
