More than 70% of the earth is covered with oceans, but what do we really know about them? Get ready to go deep down into the oceans of the world to discover what lives there, how we navigate the waters, and all about surfing. Plus, oceans more.
If you think some of the insects we see daily are creepy, just wait until you see the underwater creatures who lurk in the deep – some of them even glow. Plus, take a look at how we explored oceans through history – you might recognize the old-fashioned deep-sea diving suit as the basis for our modern space suits. Take a walk-through worlds build on the waves and learn about the Ocean Goddess of Brazil. And you don’t have to just swim in the ocean, you can skim the top of the ocean with a fantastic look at surfing.
