This display is a recreation of life around a deep sea hydrothermal vent.
A panel here looks at a rather unusual fish. A life sized model hangs overhead.
Another case of a model overhead with a panel identifying it: the porbeagle shark.
More panels about water round out the gallery.
And to conclude the Water Gallery, one more look at the blue whale skeleton.
Interesting to see the exhibits of the deep sea plants and animals.
ReplyDeleteThat's a strange underworld deep down in the sea !
ReplyDeleteIt's a strange world down there, William. Meanwhile science seems to know more about Mars and the Moon than about life at the bottom of the oceoans of our own planet.
ReplyDeleteFascinating world under the sea William, I enjoy learning about it while my feet are on terra firma 😉
ReplyDeleteYes, really a fascinating world, William !
ReplyDeleteAmazing environment and creatures...
ReplyDelete...we have been in the abyss for the last four years!
ReplyDeleteThe abyss - that would be a great place to toss Trump.
ReplyDeleteThere have been more sharks around our waters this past year than there are normally.
ReplyDeleteAmazing nature.
ReplyDeleteInteresting to see how life preservers way down in the depths.
ReplyDeleteWe don't see into the ocean so we are not familiar with what's there. Museums give us a look at the deep ocean.
ReplyDeleteThe wonders of nature.
