Learning by osmosis

Crary Lab, where visiting scientists are given office and lab space

Tonight was an astrophysics lecture by the shuttle bus driver who is taking a hiatus from his PhD.

Last night was the movie showing of the first all women traverse to the South Pole; hosted by one of the four women, she works here in laundry.

Wednesday was a fascinating slide show at the monthly 'yacht club' meeting by a contract diver about his career as a commercial diver in Antarctica and the rest of the world.

Then there are all the science lectures held by the visiting and resident scientists.
