Isaac Godoy,

the education counsellor of the canarian government spoke yesterday , in a press conference, about two upcoming projects to be housed on the canary islands. The most important one is the creation of an oceanic observation platform, that could be operative by 2011, that would set the canary islands as a worldwide mark for oceanic research.

The platform is expected to cost between 20 and 25 million euros and will be situated near to Gran Canaria and as near as possible to the continental slope. It is s said not to be built with technology of oil-research platforms, otherwise it will multiply the costs.

Wow, how you like that!! That are one f***ing good news. Big plus for this!!
