From the Vents to the Arctic: Kathy Crane’s Ocean Explorations
This fall NASA launched the Europa Clipper spaceship on a mission to the Jupiter moon of Europa to see if life might exist in its subsurface ocean. In this episode of ‘Rising Tide the Ocean Podcast’ David & Vicki interview Dr. Kathy Crane who was key to the discovery and mapping of hydrothermal vents in the deep Pacific 45 years ago when new ‘chemosynthetic’ life including giant clams and tubeworms were discovered. These are the kinds of deep ocean life that might exist on Europa and elsewhere in the universe. We talk with Kathy about being a woman geologist in these famed days of deep-sea discovery as well as her work exploring the Arctic Sea bottom during the Cold War. It’s a fascinating tale of science and the thrill of discovering new realms.
