Abstract

The article discusses the circumnavigation of the globe by the research vessel Malaspina in 2010, with a focus on its oceanographic research in the Pacific Ocean. It describes the goals, itinerary, and international academic and other sponsors of the expedition, comparing them to those of British naturalist Charles Darwin and Italian-Spanish explorer Alejandro Malaspina. Among other information included are a picture of the vessel showing its scientific apparatus which is also discussed in detail, a chart of the vessel's course with dates and location listed, and actual scientific tasks conducted aboard the ship. Personnel are also addressed.
