Aquarius

The Medina Aquarius Program at Florida International University is home to the world's only undersea research laboratory. Deployed in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary in 1993, the lab has hosted more than 120 missions and facilitated research that has led to over 600 scientific publications concerning essential issues like climate change, biodiversity, reef conservation, and ocean acidification. While teachers will appreciate lesson plans (listed under Education and Outreach), such as "If Reefs Could Talk 2010" and "Adventure Beneath the Sea," other readers may enjoy the Mission Updates and Latest News offered on the homepage. The TEDx Talk by scientists Michael Heithaus and Deron Burkpile entitled, "Reimagine Possible: The Case for Manned Sea Exploration," should also not be missed. Published on December 4, 2013, it can be found in the News section of the site.
