Such a fun day out!
Princess Beatrice confirmed her engagement on Thursday morning September 26, 2019 - 16:24 BST Sharnaz Shahid Just moments after Princess Beatrice announced her engagement, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge carried out an engagement in Birkenhead on Thursday. The appearance marks Prince William and Kate's first joint engagement this autumn. They were joined by Sir David Attenborough for the naming ceremony of the polar research ship the public voted to call Boaty McBoatface.
"The RRS Sir David Attenborough is a testament to the cutting-edge science and engineering expertise right here on Merseyside. It is also a testament to the UK’s world-leading role on polar research. Through this state-art-of-the-art new ship, the British Antarctic Survey will help to expand global knowledge of the polar oceans, and the impact of climate change on this crucial region.
Addressing crowds who had come to see the ship, Sir David said: "It's no news to any of you that the world is facing great, great problems and the most aware of that are the young people of today, who will inherit this world. Great problems require great research and facts in order to solve them.
The minisub has since performed its first mission, investigating water flow and turbulence in the dark depths of the Orkney Passage, a 2.17 mile-deep region of the Southern Ocean. Boaty will continue its scientific missions in the polar regions alongside RRS Sir David Attenborough. Make sure you never miss a ROYAL story!
