![[OASIS Ep. 2] Decorating cups at the University Primary School](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/BvP-LkoXnIQ/0.jpg "The University of Illinois Volcano Lab spent the afternoon with the Girls from the Campus Middle School and the students at the University Primary School decorating cups to send to the bottom of the ocean on our upcoming expedition. An awesome side activity for scientists exploring the deep ocean is shrinking styrofoam cups and art! The large pressures at the bottom of the ocean squeeze the styrofoam and shrink it down. The cups were shipped to Newport Oregon and are now riding aboard the R/V Atlantis, where we will meet up with them again in Manzanillo Mexico before beginning our expedition. Stay tuned to Part 2 where we watch the cups shrink! :)In this video: Dr. Patricia Gregg, (OASIS Chief Scientist, Asst.
