So this challenge really came to the fore as Jefferson starts planning these western expeditions after the Louisiana Purchase, things like the Lewis and Clark expedition . And Jefferson starts consulting astronomers and mathematicians throughout the country looking for answers to this problem.And some of this advice was useless at best.
was having lunch just now I can never turn down a free meal you so it'll come back to haunt me on day 58 of my next Expedition um so I had a fantastic Curry and and I was very aware of of the incredible amount of of brain power thatis is buzzing around this this few floors of this building um so I should say as a sort of disclaimer uh I drag
so by midnight every night we were up walking again pretty tired of this situation um so it was through these Expeditions and then my experiences in The Sciences so I tracked links and Wolverines and grizzly bears up inMontana and worked as a wildlife biologist and it was through these experiences that I realized that the

publications. She's delivered invited talks for TEDx, Mother Jones, the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, and the March for Science, and has led an Explorer's Club flagged expedition . Host of the Catastrophe! Podcast, Jess was honored as a hometown hero by the Los Angeles Chargers for her work rescuing horses during California's deadly wildfires in 2018.
it's very difficult to say if she was a lesbian or not. This expedition helped the mapping of the West and the eventual expansion of the United States, and she was a key player in that.
There was no internet. This expedition was maybe too far ahead of its time, if you know what I mean.
I'm athletic. It's not-- so there's stigma, and my parents had to endure this. An expedition style, which is Vinson in Antarctica and Denali, you are a walking everything.
We did six months of dark-- in the dark six months. This expedition lasted a year and a half. Six months in the dark, nonstop, pushed by the winds, the ice is crossing the ocean-- we did 5,000 kilometers doing nothing.
I'll talk a little bit more later perhaps in the Q&A about the international partnership of all this. So Expedition 47/48. This was, as I said, the last flight I was on last year. So March of 2016 we completed our training.
inate sorry I I must have dozed off I brought your mail from the University their expedition yes I'll speak with
We're stuck at the Russian base, and we're thinking, gosh, our trip's over expeditions . The expedition 's over. One of the biggest trips of our lives, and we can't even move. We're almost delayed 15, 16 days at this point.
Meanwhile, I did lots of other expeditions , I got my PhD, I post doc'ed at Stanford in bio-chem, and alternated climbing expeditions , research. I was studying intermediate in protein folding, and I went on an expedition in India that changed my life. And it was an easy mountain called Trisul, but it was, again, high, over 7,000 meters.
you start to share this idea with a couple of other people they get excited and before you know it you've launched an expedition and uh we've all been on these crazy adventures and just like launching a product that Google or launching an expedition it's not really until you start to take two or three or 10 or 100 steps down the way that you realize you have to iterate you have to
--the guy who discovered the "Titanic." So I got to be with him on-- Wow. --two expeditions , one to the rain forest in Peru for 10 days, and one to the top of Mount Kilauea. Very cool stuff. Wow.
Some expeditionists had already been to those areas.
multi- expeditionary look at Mars tumble weed using the Winds of Mars
It was the last expedition by dogsled.
And then for most expedition , it was a tradition to wear a hat with a ring of wolf hair on it.
Before the expedition , I had traveled around the world for years.
So the expedition was possible to be achievable through my efforts.
For this expedition , the skills I need to study and master were relatively large and complex.
For this expedition , I went to New Zealand to study crevasse rescue.
Because on his expedition , they had to sail down to Antarctica then and winter over, as Captain Scott did.
States along the 31st parallel. The leader of this expedition was an astronomer named Andrew Ellicott. And for one, this expedition gave him a chance to experiment with new methods of doing astronomy in the field, especially methods that are ideally
And some did so by non-violent means. Some stole the expedition 's horses and scientific instruments. And these weren't actually just random thefts-- they seem to have chosen instruments that they knew would prevent them from completing this boundary.
it's very difficult to say if she was a lesbian or not. And in fact the expedition set off just two months after she had had her baby.
So the expedition was divided into three different legs.
That was an expedition performed in the 18th century by Spain.
It's like that great quote by Henry Ford, "Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right." Right? So this expedition took place in Antarctica. And I don't know, has anyone been there?
And I think that counts for a lot. So a million dollar expedition , not one corporate sponsor came on board. We had Nike and L'Oreal that were thinking about it, but they didn't join.
I'm athletic. It's not-- so there's stigma, and my parents had to endure this. So on the expedition , you have to carry everything.
He was doing an expedition .
And we are now still studying them. Coming back from this expedition , one of the main ecosystems on the planet besides plankton-- in terms of biodiversity of the ocean, that is storing a lot of biodiversity, 30% of the biodiversity-- is linked to coral reefs.
Very small, it was before the first expedition launched to the space station. We use that term "expedition " to refer to the crews that go there and live there for a long period of time. The standard length of time nowadays is about six months.
The standard length of time nowadays is about six months. We launched Expedition 1 in the fall of 2000. And a lot of people around the world don't realize that since the fall of 2000, we've had continuous human presence in space.
We fast forward into June and Expedition 47 comes to an end. We transition to Expedition 48. We have an old Navy tradition up there where we ring the bell for the change of command.
Yeah. I really enjoyed the time we have spent together as Expedition 48 on International Space Station. And that milestone began Expedition 49. It also marked our time to return to the planet that we call home.
that we're saying you got to go find you know this particular species and we'll train how to distinguish between others with each volunteers expedition to make sure that they know what they're doing um we've got for our microplastics
on this this particular Expedition and has some surprise
and Irvine research expedition -- we set out to solve the clue as to whether or not Sandy Irvine and George Mallory could have climbed
And this was an expedition that was sponsored by the National Geographic Society.
were part of the expedition that lost their lives on it.
Now this was an expedition launched for both exploration-- we want to find out what's in the interior of the continent-- but also the possibility of running a telegraph
So it's a very special place. To go on an expedition like this in Antarctica, especially a place that no one has been to before, you can't just charter a plane. And you can't just go down there and do this.
-Real deal, man. Antarctica. Because going on an expedition like this really is like a short term marriage, or even closer.
And every expedition you go on is really a collaboration between a manned vehicle, a ship, and an autonomous vehicle.
We took every expedition that's gone up the Himalayas in the modern era, over 100 years, 5,000 expeditions ,
But the first American expedition was '63, and we were the second one in '76, so it was much less .
Only one expedition on Mount Everest, which is a little bit different nowadays.
