VIP Visit

WHOI gets its share of visits from politicians and dignitaries over the course of the year, but few with this many titles on his CV. This summer, former Congressman, New Mexico Governor, Energy Secretary, and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Bill Richardson stopped by during a vacation on Cape Cod. Although his visit was to record an interview with the Institution’s new ReadyCam system, Richardson also took time to tour the WHOI dock and get a close-up view of a REMUS 600 autonomous underwater vehicle.(Photo by Larry Madin, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution)
