🛥️ Welcome ORCA33! 🌞

We had a new successful sea campaign:
1) We reconnected 4 lines previously installed and tested on node 1 to the newly deployed node 2
2) We deployed and connected 5 new lines to node 2

Big thanks to everyone involved for this great step!

That's about 240 Mton of instrumented seawater now 🙌🏽
🚢🌊 Welcome, ARCA51! A milestone for KM3NeT! 🚢🌊

In the past 2 weeks, KM3NeT/ARCA grew to 51 detection units and got a new acoustic system with sub-meter precision 🎯
👏 Huge thanks to our offshore & onshore teams!
