This documentary, originally aired in 1974, describes the planning and implementation of the revolutionary Mid-Ocean Dynamics Experiment (MODE). MODE was the first collaborative oceanographic experiment designed by leading international scientists using a variety of cutting-edge technologies and theoretical concepts to address an important question; were there eddies in the ocean? MODE was the blueprint for how we plan and execute modern oceanographic experiments, including real-time distribution of the data.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is an independent, coeducational, privately endowed university in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Our mission is to advance knowledge; to educate students in science, engineering, technology, humanities and social sciences; and to tackle the most pressing problems facing the world today. We are a community of hands-on problem-solvers in love with fundamental science and eager to make the world a better place.
The MIT YouTube channel features videos about all types of MIT research, including the robot cheetah, LIGO, gravitational waves, mathematics, and bombardier beetles, as well as videos on origami, time capsules, and other aspects of life and culture on the MIT campus. Our goal is to open the doors of MIT and bring the Institute to the world through video.
