Since leaving kodiak on the 12th, we have been working on two of our underway projects, installing digital tachometers on our main engines, and building a new switch panel for our deck lights. After several days of traveling and raiding the ice cream rations, our real work began this morning at site BS-2, a passive acoustic mooring station. After a retrieval and deployment, we steamed over to the next site with both acoustic and water column moorings. Finishing up at 22:45 local, we are now underway for our next site, with an ETA right around breakfast time. Deckhand David brings us today's riddle of the day.
Imagine you are standing outside the door to a room. In front of you, there are three light switches. You know one of the switches will turn on a light in the next room, but you can only open the door once to check. Three switches, but you can only enter the room once. How will you figure out which switch turns the light on?
