Volcanoes of the Abyss

罗格斯大学正在制作一部关于深海热液喷口不断发展的科学调查的大型科学纪录片。《深渊火山》(暂定片名)将与火山海洋电影公司联合制作，由斯蒂芬·洛担任制片人/导演。它将检查这些通风口支持的社区以及它们与周围环境的关系。它还将考虑喷口发现对我们理解生命进化和我们在宇宙中其他地方寻找生命的影响。大部分拍摄工作将在阿尔文深海考察船上进行。与之配套的教育推广计划将惠及中学和大学的学生。基于印刷和基于网络的材料也将被设计为供家庭使用。这部电影和宣传材料将成为一项实质性教育努力的基础，让公众了解这个迷人但基本上未知的生态系统的复杂性和重要性。

Rutgers University is developing a large-format, scientific, documentary film about the evolving scientific investigation of deep-sea hydrothermal vents. Volcanoes of the Abyss (working title) will be produced in conjunction with Volcanic Ocean Films and produced/directed by Stephen Low. It will examine the communities these vents support and their relationship to the surrounding environment. It also will consider the implications vent discoveries have for our understanding of the evolution of life and our search for life elsewhere in the Cosmos. Much of the filming will be done from on board the Alvin deep ocean research vessel.The companion Educational Outreach Program will reach students in middle and secondary schools and at the college level. Print-based and web-based material also will be designed for use by families. The film and the outreach materials together will be the basis of a substantive educational effort to inform the public about the intricacies and significance of the fascinating, but largely unknown, ecosystem.
