Voyage of the USCGC Healy and the Chukchi cap

The Chukchi Cap is a large undersea ridge in the Arctic Ocean. The cap is normally ice-covered, year-round. The United States Coast Guard Cutter Healy has been sent on multiple missions to map the poorly explored ridge.

The cap lies roughly about 800 kilometres north of the Point Barrow, Alaska. The area is notable because it is believed to be rich in natural resources, and it is a disputed water.

Deep thoughts by Enki

"I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own abhorrence" - Frederick Douglass

Dove thoughts by LeicesterLass

"I am carved in ice, framed in flame, carried by wind, whispered in waves, and grounded in stone. The strength of ice is in the stillness. The passion of fire is in the heart. The freedom of air is in the spirit. The wisdom of water is in the mind. And the knowledge of earth is in the roots." Dove Hepburn (1980–2025)
