International scientists in the Gulf of Panama are using a new ship that's essentially a floating laboratory to learn more about our oceans. The ship has technology that can be used to measure microplastics, map ocean floors, discover sea life and more, and is manned by a rotating crew of scientists. Ben Tracy has more, and a look at the work going on onboard.
