On Thursday, June 27, the Arizona Science Center is hosting a special evening event featuring OceanX Expedition: Unveiling the Deep. The center will be extending its hours until 9 p.m., offering guests an exclusive look at the OceanXplorer, an advanced exploration, research, and media vessel currently in the depths of Indonesia.
Mattie Rodrigue, a Chandler native and science program director at Ocean X, will be live streaming with the center. Mattie graduated from Arizona State University with a bachelor’s degree in Conservation Biology and Ecology.
During this event, visitors can explore OceanXperience, an exhibition that replicates the OceanXplorer vessel and offers hands-on activities and experiments. They will also have the opportunity to tune in to a live stream with scientists on board sharing their knowledge about ocean exploration, research, discoveries, and more. Additionally, there will be a fireside chat and Q&A session with Vincent Pieribone, CEO of OceanX.
