Volcanoes of the Deep Sea
Volcanoes of the Deep Sea takes the audience along with scientists aboard the submersible Alvin, as they plunge 12,000 feet below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean, to places of crushing pressure, extreme temperatures, and toxic water. They explore astounding volcanic habitats on the crest of the Mid-Ocean Ridge and investigate a mysterious living fossil that is decorating the deep with its strange, symmetrical imprint. |
