Teachers went to Stennis to learn about blue economy careers at gov't agencies and private companies on site. Thanks to partners at @NASA , @ARocketdyne, NAVOCEANO, @databuoycenter & @USMSOSE for the all-access tours! Keep your eyes for our 3-day summer PD! #GenSea #STEMjobs

The end of an era: Our last 12-meter buoy departed yesterday. Nowadays, our buoys come in at 3 meters or 2.1 meters – quite the difference! To put it in perspective, 12 meters is the same length as 6 king-sized mattresses. Current buoys are a bit bigger than one king mattress.
ALT 12D09/XERB, a 12-meter buoy, sits at NDBC's dock at Stennis Space Center, Mississippi.

Happy #NationalInternDay to our two summer interns, Savanah and JJ! Savanah is a @NOAA Lapenta intern and JJ is an Amentum STEM intern at #NDBC. They are working across our teams to learn more about @NWS/NDBC, and even did some #fieldwork on a C-MAN service trip! #FutureofSTEM

Out in Kodiak, AK our team is prepping for the next #NDBCAtSea #PacificLeg2023 field mission! Rain or shine, we get it done. 💪

Heja BVB. Always and forever. The disappointing end to the season will make lifting the Meisterschale that much sweeter for the boys. Onward from here! 🖤💛
Hinter uns allen liegen emotionale Tage. Tage des Frusts, Tage der Enttäuschung, Tage der Leere. Selten hat uns ein Tag emotional so mitgenommen wie der vergangene Samstag.
Aber es gab auch viele Momente, in denen unsere Fans, unsere Spieler, unser Trainer – Ihr alle – mit Worten und Taten gezeigt habt, was diesen Verein ausmacht: Borussia Dortmund hält fest und treu zusammen.
Ja, unser Traum ist zerbrochen. Aber nicht unser Verein. Wir stehen wieder auf. Noch lauter. Noch stärker. Noch hungriger. Und wir werden alles geben, was in uns steckt.
DANKE an die besten Fans der Welt!
Nur der BVB. Was auch immer geschieht.

This #MemorialDay we honor and remember the heroes who gave their lives in service to our country. 🇺🇸

Last week we hosted a tour for @NASAStennis interns at NDBC! We welcomed the opportunity to share more about #maritimesafety to the next generation of #STEM professionals interning on site.

The upgraded Tropical Atmosphere Ocean array will be more robust and able to monitor the ocean below in more detail—potentially allowing earlier and more accurate El Niño forecasts. scim.ag/2pD

The #NDBC team gathered at a @BiloxiShuckers baseball game last night for NDBC Family Night! We had a great time cheering on the #Mississippi Shuckers and our Director Dr. William Burnett as he threw out the first pitch. ⚾️🧢

Ever wondered what it looks like at the dock for NDBC? Our Galveston #AtlanticLeg2023 cruise just wrapped up in our home @PortofGulfport, and @WLOX covered our arrival and prep for our next cruise into the Caribbean/Atlantic Ocean. #NDBCAtSea continues!

#NDBCAtSea update: Our San Diego #PacificLeg2023 team has so far serviced 3 tsunami detection (DART) stations & 5 climate monitoring (TAO) stations, 6 of which were non-operational. @NOAA @NWS
Here’s a sunset pic from their latest service stop, TAO buoy 2S 95W (station 32322).
