The ship Glomar Challenger confirmed critical data regarding the age and structure of the ocean floor, supporting the theory of plate tectonics. It provided evidence of seafloor spreading and the existence of mid-ocean ridges. The drilling operations revealed sediment layers that allowed scientists to date geological events, contributing significantly to our understanding of Earth's geological history.
The Glomar Challenger ship recorded various types of data on magnetic anomalies in the Earth's crust, including magnetic field strength and direction. This information helped scientists study the Earth's magnetic history and map the ocean floor. The data collected by the Glomar Challenger significantly contributed to advancements in understanding plate tectonics and seafloor spreading.
the Challenger
Sally Ride went aloft in the space shuttle Challenger in 1983.
The Space Shuttle Challenger was named after the H.M.S. Challenger, a 19th Century British Naval ship that was later converted into a marine research vessel. The Challenger Expedition was a major contributor to modern Oceanography.
Scientific ocean exploration began in the 19th century, which used wooden sailing ships. The HMS Challenger was originally a British warship outfitted with ammunition and an engine capable of over 1,200 horsepower. Lets start with the HMS. H stands for His/Her, M stands for Majesty's, and S stands for Ship. {{HMS(His/Her Majesty's Ship)}} Earlier in this answer I mentioned that the challenger was originally a warship. I searched the encyclopedia for the part about 'challenger', it was named challenger because it challenged to go explore, research, or (in the case of war) challenge it's opponents. The 'll' because it was the second challenger ship. Citations: www.marianatrench.com http://oceanexplorer.noaa.gov/explorations/03mountains/background/challenger/challenger.html My all knowing dad:)
The data collected by the drilling ship Glomar Challenger confirmed continental drift.

Glomar Challenger was a deep sea research and scientific drilling vessel for oceanography and marine geology studies.
Yes, the Glomar Challenger was a research ship equipped with a drilling rig, but it did not record magnetic data. Its main purpose was to conduct deep-sea drilling for core samples from the ocean floor to study geological and paleoceanographic processes.
the Challenger
The name of the ship was the HMS Challenger. The Challenger expedition was a groundbreaking oceanographic survey that laid the foundation for modern oceanography.
Oh, dude, that's like saying there's a pizza with no cheese - it just ain't right! The Glomar Challenger was a research vessel, not a ship with a drilling rig. So, technically, the sentence is incorrect. But hey, mistakes happen, right?
Glomar Challenger was equipped wit a drilling rig that sampled specific locations. (check the ques on wikipedia if you need more info.)
I do not now
the Glomar Challenger was a 200ft. 3-masted ship with a steam engine, workspace, laboratories, and storage spaces
The H.M.S Challenger
he was a challenger and it bluw up when he was in the space ship
