THE SCIENCE LABORATORY
A working science lab developed in consultation
with Cambridge University and other academic
partners, it supports a range of research activities
and is equipped with wet and dry laboratory
capabilities, a sample-processing area, fume
cupboard, freezer/cool storage, comprehensive
microscope optics and space for analysis-specific
instruments. Guests receive supervised laboratory
access to learn from and participate with scientists
undertaking primary research, an experience unique
to Viking. Field samples collected during excursions,
optional submarine dives and landings are analysed,
interpreted and discussed with guests, providing
stimulating engagement and unique insight into how
data is collected in remote locations to inform global
conservation decisions.
