Jason XIII: Frozen Worlds

Picture
The JASON Project began as the dream of Robert Ballard, the scientist and oceanographer who discovered the wreck of the RMS Titanic in 1986. Dr. Ballard believed that enabling students and their teachers to do field work from the classroom was a powerful concept. The JASON Project was born on the basis of this powerful idea and has since grown into the world's premier real-time science teaching and learning program. Bruce Wright was one of the host scientists for the Frozen Worlds program. See http://www.myhero.com/go/hero.asp?hero=argonauts.
