Field Trips
Life in the Abyss Overnight
Grades 4-6
17 hours, $2700 for up to 45 participants
This overnight adventure combines our popular living systems lab/cruise with activities that
explore the fascinating world of nocturnal and deep-sea animal adaptations. In the evening, students investigate
shark adaptations, pilot our remotely operated vehicles, dissect a cow eye to look at low light adaptations, and
visit the dock where our squid light attracts animals of the night. In the morning, students venture out to sea to
conduct the investigations outlined in our living systems cruise with the added excitement of lowering student drawn
Styrofoam cups 1000 ft. to see the dramatic effects of pressure.
