Article & Video Ping!
Check out this one of a kind research vessel that floats in such a way that it can stay out on the scientists on board can stay out on the ocean even during storms that create up to 80 foot waves without fear of ever sinking. The video is at the bottom of the fairly lengthy article I wrote, so here is the link to two videos, FLIP, How Does It Float? Or you can download this short 3 min. mpg I made and watch it later on your own pc, FLIP.mpg

Made in 1962, Flip is one of the worlds best kept secrets of the Oceanographic industry, but this secret has not been on purpose however Not much of a secret. I remember this from the 60s.

No it's low profile in the awareness of the public's eye is probably due to the type of work it's scientists perform.

I like David Kupelian’s point (”The Marketing of Evil” and “How Evil Works”): We’re learning a lot about everything but ourselves, and therein lies the catch.

No it's low profile in the awareness of the public's eye is probably due to the type of work it's scientists perform. The difference between "secrecy" and "obscurity" is ~ the difference between "it's" and "its."
