Episode notes

Hannah's been getting updates from onboard the Arctic Sunrise, one of Greenpeace's research ships, since the beginning of the series - from Panama where it set sail out into the Galápagos Islands marine reserve. We heard as it crossed the equator, and we've learnt about the pioneering research the scientists and volunteers have already done on seamounts in the area. And now, they've finally anchored and we're joining them onboard for an episode all about Galápagos.

You'll meet Sophie Cooke, the expedition lead; Captain Mike, the man behind the wheel; Andrea Vera, an Ecuadorian scientist; and Hannah is lucky enough to be able to catch up with Spanish Actress Alba Flores (from Netflix's Money Heist), who's just got back home after spending a week onboard.

 

Follow the show @oceanspod on IG, TikTok & Twitter for footage from onboard the Arctic Sunrise, and to see videos of what Alba got up to during her time there.
