I was woken up this morning at two by a room call for the MOCNESS. I left a note on the Board of Lies asking somebody to give me a call when it went out and sure enough, somebody did. I hustled down to the lab from my stateroom as fast as I could and got out on the weather deck. Alexei wanted to do another live cast to see if he could catch some pregnant krill and like last night, there were none. He just wanted to make sure and now he was. We weren't going to catch any pregnant krill. They already ran their cycle or they haven't gotten around to it yet. We also had some rather unpleasant visitors last night. We caught the fringe of it last night but tonight there was a full fledge swarm of jellyfish. In every net collection bucket on the MOCNESS, we caught at least three jellyfish. Their tentacles covered the machine as we pulled it up out of the sea and then got stuck to your gloves and mustang suit. Like last night, we did three casts but only one live one. After the third cast, Jillian, the teacher who's been co-launching the MOCNESS, went to bed. She's really been putting in some long hours and needed some rest so I helped Alexei dismantle the MOCNESS. We really didn't tear it apart all that much but we did take off all the nets for cleaning, all nine of them. Now it's just a frame and it looks a lot different. As you might imagine, the MOCNESS is kind of worthless without nets and there is a good reason we took them off and that's because we're DONE! No more MOCNESS casts! Woohoo! Our last cast was on the third to last station of the cruise and even as I'm typing this, we're finishing up the very last station. After this it is a straight shot back to Dutch Harbor. A straight transit should take about 10 or 11 hours or so. When we get back to port, we have the day to do as we please so we were thinking about maybe going hiking on some mountain paths or perhaps going to the WWII museum. Until then, since we have all our stuff packed up, everyone can take a breath of fresh air and kick back for a little relaxation from all of our frenzied packing and cleaning. Just a few more of these before I head back to Maryland. I hope you stick around until the end. Until then everyone.
