Arizona Science Center is hosting a live broadcast with OceanXplorer, the world’s most advanced exploration, research, and media vessel, currently in the ocean depths in Indonesia. The event will take place at the Irene P. Flinn Giant Screen Theater on the Arizona Science Center’s downtown campus.
Hosted by OceanX CEO Vincent Pieribone and featuring Arizona native and OceanX’s Science Program Director Mattie Rodrigue, the event will provide a behind-the-scenes look at ocean exploration and the groundbreaking research conducted on the vessel. Rodrigue, who earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Biological Sciences with a concentration in conservation and ecology from Arizona State University, will be sharing her insights during the broadcast.
The event is scheduled for 4 to 9 p.m. on Thursday, June 27, and will allow guests to interact with scientists on board OceanXplorer as they explore the deep sea and conduct groundbreaking research. Attendees can ask questions in real-time, witness live experiments, and gain insights into the mysteries of the oceans.
After the live stream, Pieribone will participate in a Fireside Chat and Q&A session with the audience. The event is included with all Arizona Science Center Memberships and general admission. For more information, visit https://www.azscience.org/.
