IMAGE COPYRIGHT National Oceanography Centre The Ocean's Crystal Ball
You are invited to engage with a dazzling visualisation of our watery planet, exploring our blue world through a simulated globe displaying the ocean in motion. You will engage with the National Oceanography Centre's modelling team and learn how they use supercomputers to predict future ocean scenarios.
At the heart of the exhibit is a captivating, touch-sensitive, spherical display where you can switch views between ocean currents, shifting temperatures, and evolving ecosystems projected in vivid detail. You will speak with oceanographers who use physics, biogeochemistry and supercomputers to understand how the ocean shapes weather, climate and life on Earth.
Come meet the modelling team, explore interactive visuals, and learn how the ocean connects to the entire Earth system - from the air we breathe to the food we eat. Whether you are curious about climate change, marine life, or the science behind the scenes, this is your change to dive deep without getting wet!
