glomar challenger expedition

The Glomar Challenger was an oceanographic drilling and coring vessel. It was constructed in the late 1960s by Global Marine, Inc. The only ship of its kind in the world, it is capable of drilling in water depths up to 6,000m (20,000 feet) and bringing back core samples from depths as much as 750m (2,500 feet) below the sea floor. To maintain the extreme stability required for this operation under differing current, wind, and wave conditions, the vessel is equipped with a computer-controlled roll-neutralizing system.
