Another field trip this week: we visited the Abyss Observatory where Delia Lake brought us on a tour of this science museum / aquarium of the Earth, marine life, undersea technology that inspires a sense of wonder for the deepsea world. This included seeing various ecosystems recreated accurately with appropriate flora and fauna. Delia explained the impact of human intervention on these environments and how they are changing due to the heating of the oceans. There is so much to see in this very detailed and extensive sim that Delia invited us back to explore further in our own time. Everyone is welcome anytime.

There were a few issues with the sound and some participants experienced occasional drop out. So, here is a recording of this field trip from last year’s class which covers much of the same ground.
