Amazonia: Mother of Nature (Documentary Film)
(DTVisions from Amazon in Brazil)
Outfitter satellite has been our satellite phone provider for the past 2 years (see
Extreme Environment). Last year we were able to communicate
with students back in the United States, send field journal updates and send daily photos from the field in Bolivia where scientists were
studying one of the highest lakes on Earth (19,600 feet). This year, the folks at Outfitter Satellite provided us with 2 Nera world
communicator sat phones and a Talking Head videophone unit. Their assistance allowed the scientific team to again communicate
with students not only with field updates and photos, but for a live webcast as well. Through using the satellite phones and videophone
unit, students from a rural school in Northern California were able to talk personally with scientists in the field and ask them
questions about their expedition. This webcast changed many students that day, and encouraged them to push their limits of knowledge.
They observed real science as it was happening, from thousands of miles away! To offer this type of learning experience would have
never happened if it weren’t for the folks at Outfitter Satellite. Because of their hard work and dedication, students around the world
participated in cutting edge science without leaving the safety of their classroom. Thank you!

Outfitter saved the day for
Climbing For A Cause 2002
by providing portable Inmarsat M4 satellite communication
equipment for our climbers, so that they can
transmit images from Argentina's
Mount Aconcagua directly to our website.
School districts in Florida's Collier
and Lee Counties will receive daily updates on the expedition's progress.
The climber's dedication will benefit two worthy
causes: cancer equipment and healthcare for orphans. Thanks Outfitter!
