Photo of JAMSTEC's deep-sea scientific drilling vessel "Chikyū". Source: JAMSTEC's webpage - https://www.jamstec.go.jp/chikyu/e/about/img/about01.jpg Description of photo: A white, tanker-like ship with several cranes situated on its deck can be seen in the foreground. Half way between the bow and stern of the ship a massive drilling rig rises skyward from the deck. The ship appears to be stationary, floating in calm seas with the snow-capped, conical peak of Mount Fuji shining in the background against a blue, cloudless sky.
