Descripció
Resum:	Leveraging the power of fiber-optic communications and Unix workstations, scientists of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution relay images from 20,000 feet below the ocean surface to a ship floating overhead. Woods Hole was assisted by Electronic Data Systems Corp. in extending Internet links down to the ocean floor. A factor in the slight delays in broadcasting the images is that the lab has not yet converted many of its Sun Microsystems Inc. SunOS applications to the new Solaris 2.X operating system.
