This episode was recorded at the Inter Astra Retreat just outside Washington DC last November (2023) where I had the pleasure of sitting down with Lisa Marrocchino, the CEO of Proteus Ocean Group.
Starting in the world of Wall Street, Lisa has a profound passion for advancing our understanding of the ocean through innovative technologies.
Proteus, is being designed as the 'International Space Station of the Ocean,' aiming to revolutionize our approach to sustained underwater research.
In this episode, Lisa shares the inspiring origins of Proteus, conceived by co-founder Fabien Cousteau, Grandson of Jacques Cousteau, and the ambitious goals they have for this pioneering project. Lisa details the technological and scientific advancements they hope to achieve and the broader implications for environmental research and space exploration analogs.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- Challenges and triumphs in creating a state-of-the-art research facility beneath the sea.
- The role of Proteus in simulating space mission conditions and its implications for future space travel.
- Collaborative initiatives with global scientific communities aimed at fostering significant advancements in ocean research.
- Lisa’s aspirations for Proteus to leave a lasting impact by bridging the gap between oceanic exploration and space discovery.
Quote:
"Proteus isn't just about pushing the boundaries of ocean research; it's about creating a legacy that ties the mysteries of the ocean with the vastness of space."
