Water, Water, Everywhere (March 8)

Humans have pretty much mapped all of the world….or have they? There is a huge chunk of our world out there that is currently unmapped and unexplored! How do you even begin to map an area so deep Mount Everest could fit in there and still be underwater? In this session we’re going to give it a go. We’ll also take a look at tidal waves. Come along to start discovering the mysterious and wonderful world beneath the water.
