Creator's Key Takeaways
I was lucky enough when I was a teenager to take part in an Earthwatch expedition as a tourist to participate in research and I picked a killer whale research project and I haven't really looked back.
One of the really interesting things about having researchers aboard the National Geographic Explorer uh in Antarctica is that not only are they doing their work, but every day they're sharing that work with our guests.
This is real citizen science in many many ways. It was great.
So, it was really a really exciting day.
