Students Will Be Embarked for 7 Days on the Floating Teaching Laboratory

Next Thursday (9), a unique experience will begin for students in the Oceanography course at the Federal University of Espírito Santo (Ufes). Students will be on board until the 16th of this month on the training ship Ciências do Mar III, and will be able to take advantage of the available infrastructure to learn about the ROV. For this, the Floating Teaching Laboratory will make its first trip to Espírito Santo.

According to A Gazeta, 14 students from Ufes, one professor, and one post-doctoral fellow will board the training ship. The post-doctoral fellow will conduct a research experiment with an underwater robot (ROV), and a nurse from the Nursing Department of the University will assist students with any discomfort caused by the rocking of the sea.

The trip will take place thanks to an agreement signed in November 2022 between the Federal University of Espírito Santo (Ufes) and the Federal Fluminense University (UFF), which manages the Ciências do Mar III. The training ship will be at sea until March 16. On the 19th, it will be handed over to Ifes in Piúma and will later return to Niterói-RJ, where its operational base is located.

The professor from Ufes’ Oceanography Department, Agnaldo Silva Martins, responsible for the didactic program of the Supervised Embarkation course, states that the Ciências do Mar III is an important addition to Ufes’ infrastructure.

“Students currently undertake this embarked experience but generally on vessels that are not always in ideal conditions for learning. Now, we will be able to conduct a class of the course in the environment and using the equipment that we often mention in theoretical classes,” he explains.

Furthermore, he concludes that “the purpose of this ship is not research, but teaching. Research can and should occur because the ship is equipped with state-of-the-art oceanographic instruments, which are the same ones used in research, but the idea of the project is for students to be able to interact with the ship and learn what is generally not possible on expeditions where they go ‘as passengers.’”

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

What is the ideal distance between one pillar and another? The measurement used in houses with up to 2 floors can avoid huge beams, low ceilings, and extra construction costs.

Researchers from the National Institute of Anthropology of Mexico mapped an entire site called El Jefeciño along the route of the Maya Train, with 80 stone buildings, a C-shaped plaza, and 250 acres inhabited between 250 and 900 A.D.

The American Navy fired a high-energy laser from the deck of an aircraft carrier for the first time in history to shoot down a drone in the Mediterranean, an event that is a game-changer for naval air defense.

Factory that exported to more than 50 countries will be demolished in Santa Catarina, former Cecrisa pavilions make way for a R$ 200 million innovation park, ending the industrial era that put Criciúma on the world ceramics map.
