If you haven't been made aware either through emails from Regent or their Facebook and Twitter posts, tonight's NOVA on PBS is "Ultimate Cruise Ship". It's about building Regent's new ship Explorer.

Program Description: "Weighing 54,000 gross tons and stretching over two football fields, the Seven Seas Explorer is no ordinary boat. Join pioneering shipbuilders as they endeavor to build the ultimate cruise ship. It will be decked with the finest gold, marble, and crystal and designed to offer guests the roomiest accommodations of any commercial cruise ship. However, engineering opulence is no easy feat. NOVA follows a pioneering team of ship builders as they embark on what is advertised to be a milestone in maritime engineering."

Very interesting program. I want to know where the two halves are joined together. Next time on board, I am going to try to figure it out.
