Exploration in our time! Aquarius Exploration in our time!

Let’s take a look at some footage! http://aquarius.uncw.edu/about/overview http://quest.arc.nasa.gov/projects/space/aquarius/2002/september.html

What is Aquarius? Underwater laboratory Home to scientists for up to 10 days Used as a base for research dive expeditions Scientists work on reef for up to 9 hours a day without fear of getting the bends http://aquarius.uncw.edu/

Where is Aquarius? Located in a sand patch In the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary 63 feet below the surface http://aquarius.uncw.edu/

What have scientists done on Aquarius? Sewage pollution, water quality affect Florida Keys National Sanctuary Chemical warfare on the reefs leads to drugs from the sea Properties of light underwater Fossil records on reefs Corals as predators http://aquarius.uncw.edu/

What other things do you think scientists could research on Aquarius?
