A Whale of an Opportunity
The New England Aquarium
and Draper Laboratory of Cambridge, Massachusetts, are teaming up to use
satellites to track the travels of radio-equipped whales in the ocean, and
Draper's Chief Scientist wants hams to help. John Irvine says the program is
still in its planning stages but hopes to be able to leverage the widespread
locations of hams around the world to assist scientists with monitoring
transmissions from radio-tagged whales. CQ
will bring you more details as the plans develop.
