What an absolute legend this vessel is and forever will be. I was fortunate enough to go on three expeditions (2012, 2018, 2023).
I snapped this pic in Oct 2023 (at the end of Exp400) in Reykjavík. We disembarked and were about to board that bus to drive away and I stepped aside for a moment 🥲

Today, the legendary JR begins her last journey to the shipwrecking yard.
Home to many of us, she helped to understand plate tectonics, climate, deep biosphere, earthquakes/volcanoes, and was an integral part in international science and collaboration 🫡
