Finally Rhode Island is getting some national exposure for something really awesome. Tonight on 60 Minutes Lara Logan interviews Dr. Bob Ballard of the URI Graduate School of Oceanography. She joined a recent expedition last September when his crew discovered a new site, a 1400-year-old Byzantine wreck on the floor of the Black Sea. According to URI’s GSO website,
The news program is reporting on efforts to explore the oceans by focusing on Ballard’s work and the operation of the Inner Space Center, which connects researchers and ships at sea with URI and shore-based scientists.
This stuff is so cool. (For preview of 60 Minutes segment go here.)
