ABE add-on requested. Financing uncertain.
Comment: an extension of the cruise by 10 days is requested pending financing
through NAUTILUS (marine mining company) will be possible.
Target of the NAUTILUS investigation is the Vienna Woods hydrothermal field
(3°10'S, 150°17'E, 2500 mbsl). Use of ABE and Jason2 are planned
