Adventure Beneath the Sea: Living in an Underwater Science Station (book signing) March 7, 2011

What is it like to live 60 feet below the ocean waves? Author Ken Mallory found out. He spent a week in the Aquarius underwater laboratory on a coral reef off the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary, scuba diving every day to study the fish of the reef and to see if they stayed in the surrounding marine protected area.

The Aquarium has been providing free lectures and films by scientists, environmental writers, photographers and others since 1972. The Aquarium Lecture Series is presented free to the public through the generosity of the Lowell Institute, which has been providing funding for free public lectures at universities and museums since 1836.

Lectures are free and open to the public. Registration is requested. All programs start at 7 p.m. in the Aquarium's Harborside Learning Lab, unless otherwise noted below. Programs last approximately one hour followed by a reception.
