Celebrating 10 Years of Ocean Observation: A Retrospective - Video

SHARE
Cast your mind back to 2006. A NASA probe went into orbit around Mars, Twitter was born and the iPhone was still just a twinkle in Steve Jobs' eye.

It was also the year that Ocean Networks Canada (ONC), an initiative of the University of Victoria, made history by installing the world's first interactive realtime portal into the ocean. This allowed scientists, policy-makers, educators and the public to “enter” the ocean from anywhere, at anytime, via the Internet.

On 8 February 2006, the world's most advanced cabled seafloor observatory was successfully installed in Saanich Inlet near Victoria, British Columbia. It was just the start of a decade of exploration, innovation and expansion that continues today.
