To celebrate this, MT\u00dc Thetis Ekspeditsioonid, SA Eesti Meremuuseum and O\u00dc Admiral Bellingshausen organised a popular science expedition from Kronstadt to the Antarctic. <a href=\"http:\/\/postimees.ee\/antarktika\">http:\/\/postimees.ee\/antarktika<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/antarctica200\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/antarctica200<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Collection campaign <em>People\u2019s Stories<br \/><\/em><\/strong>The Estonian Maritime Museum is participating in a joint collection and research project of Estonian museums titled <em>Estonia 1987\u20132000: Breaking Point or Leaping Off.<\/em> Within the project, museums together with other memory institutions and involved scientists focus on studying the recent past. The objective of the project is to study processes in a transitional society, primarily based on the everyday experiences of individuals, as the previous studies have mainly focused on reflecting political, economic, and societal changes.

In addition to the material in the Maritime Museum\u2019s collections, private maritime collections exist in Estonia and it is important to map them for the purpose of evaluating the maritime heritage. This project was carried out by the Ministry of Culture, the Estonian Maritime Museum, MT\u00dc Hiiumaa Meremuuseum, K\u00e4smu Maritime Museum and Mrs.\u00a0Dora-Alviine Kesper.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Historical and new Western Estonian ports, 2013\u22122015<\/strong><br \/>In 2013\u22122015, information was collected about changes that had occurred in Estonia\u2019s ports and moorings between 1980 and 2013. The Estonian Maritime Museum\u2019s partners in this project were SA Hiiumaa Muuseumid, Saaremaa Museum, P\u00e4rnu Museum and SA Haapsalu ja L\u00e4\u00e4nemaa muuseumid. The project was supported by the Ministry of Culture.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>ARROWS, 2012\u22122015<\/strong><br \/>ARROWS (ARchaeological RObot systems for the World\u2019s Seas) was a project aimed at developing autonomous underwater robots for archaeological purposes. The project was carried out by ten organisations from Italy, Turkey, the United Kingdom and Spain. The Estonian units involved in the project were the Centre for Biorobotics of Tallinn University of Technology and the Estonian Maritime Museum. The Centre for Biorobotics built a robot that can explore the insides of sunken ships; the Maritime Museum\u2019s task was to test the robots in the Baltic Sea.
