A U.S. undersea station serves as mankind's permanent presence among densely populated coral reefs and other oceanic life 60 feet below the ocean's surface.
Aquarius is the site of 10-day missions to live and explore among our watery companions, where aquanauts conduct observations designed to help better understand the processes of life and environmental features far removed from shore. The station is operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
