One of the many beautiful sunrises on the Marion Plateau. The drill ship JOIDES Resolution as seen from the zodiac during a seawater collection trip.

Scientists and crew witness the inflation of an expired emergency raft on the helicopter deck. Left: raft (in canister) prior to inflation. Right: raft after inflation.

Hump day (halfway point of the leg) cultural activities. Left: Swiss cheese fondue hosted by the Leg 194 Swiss team. Right: Birthday scientists perform an inspired version of the Swiss Heidi saga, "Heidi on the Reef", written by Mike Howell (Paleontologist and honorary Swiss for the day). From left to right: Steve Kittredge (Schlumberger Logging Engineer, USA) as Grandpa, Tesfaye Birke (Paleomagnetist, USA) as Peter, Garry Karner (Physical Properties Specialist, USA) as the goat, and Alexandra Isern (Co-Chief Scientist, USA) as Heidi.

A good cup of coffee amongst friends in the Café Chemistry (i.e., chemistry lab): The best place to be at 3 am. From left to right: Gregor Eberli (Logging Specialist, USA), Steve Burns (Inorganic Geochemist, USA), Michael Page (Lab Specialist, Australia), Anne Pimmel (Chemistry Lab Specialist), Margaret Hastedt (Marine Computer Specialist) and Michael Howell (Foraminifer Paleontologist, USA).
Leg 194 paleontologists (from left to right): Michael Howell (Planktonic Foraminifers, USA), Wuchang Wei (Calcareous Nannofossils, USA), Duncan Stewart (Planktonic Foraminifers, England) and Pamela Hallock-Muller (Benthic Foraminifers, USA).

Logging Staff Scientist Heike Delius (United Kingdom) and Schlumberger Logging Engineer Steve Kittredge (USA) monitor the collection of borehole data in the "logging shack."
The carbonate platform at Hole 1196B was reentered twice without a reentry cone, once with the rotary core barrel (RCB) and once with the advanced diamond core barrel (ADCB).
