The Royal Society of Victoria intends to lead 'RSV-INTREPID' – two 40-day summer voyages of scientific investigation involving 50 year 12 students and 60 scientists. Students will participate in intensive ship-board and shore-based investigative and experimental projects designed to complement other IPY projects. They will prepare an investigative report.
The voyages are expected to depart from Hobart in December 2007 and December 2008, visiting Macquarie Island on the way to the Antarctic coast.
