Robert Ballard is one of very few true explorers who seeks to educate people especially the kids.
He might seem a bit showy, but you can be sure it is not in the name of vanity.
I follow some of his work especially when it pertains to educating children. He makes things simple for them to understand.
I have the book about the Bismark. Excellent work. I know he did a lot of work for National Geographic which happens to be one of my favorite publications.
Yup. I saw the National Geographic special that featured his exploration of the Black Sea (Noah's Flood) some time back.
