The Royal Research Ship James Cook is sailing to the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, just above the Atlantis Massif, to recover rock specimens using state-of-the-art drilling technology. Scientists hope to gain insights into microbial life, chemistry, and geochemistry found there from analysing the rocks. The information could also be used explain the geology observed on Mars.
Jack Stewart speaks to Dr Carol Cotterill, the offshore expedition project manager.
