Calling All Kids! Design E/V Nautilus’ Next Expedition Patch

Published 9 years agoon January 19, 2017

Are you aged between 6 and 14? Are you good at drawing? It is time to break out your crayons and get colouring. Your artwork could go on an ocean adventure aboard Exploration Vessel Nautilus!

Members of the Corps of Exploration will be exploring the eastern Pacific Ocean this year. To mark this important expedition, team members wear a patch. And you could design the official 2017 expedition patch.

The patch design must include the words ‘EV Nautilus’, ‘2017’ and represent ocean exploration under one of the following themes.

Science – geology, marine biology or archaeology
Technology – the ship, the ships’s ROV’s or the ships multibeam mapping sonar
Exploration – 90% of the ocean remains unexplored. Nautilus will study the eastern Pacific Ocean this year (Mexico, Canada, and the United States)

You can see examples of previous award winning patches here, and information on the rules and how to enter this fun ocean competition can be found here.

The competition closes on 31 January 2017. Good luck to all!
