Science Island
Dateline: 05/03/97
This feature is a week early because I will be travelling to the Big Island of Hawaii. The Island of Hawaii is also known as The Orchid Isle, the Volcano Isle, and the Big Isle. There is a lot of scientific activity on the island as well. From the bottom of the ocean to the far reaches of the universe, scientists are hard at work! We'll be taking a closer look at the Science Isle in the weeks to come.
Volcano Watch - The weekly news about Kilauea Volcano.
Hawai`iloa - The seafaring Hawaiians - past and present.
Waikiki Aquarium - Explore marine life through this virtual tour.
Endangered Species - More than a third of the endangered species on the U.S. endangered species list come from Hawaii.
Astronomy - Studying the universe from the top of Mauna Kea.
Hawaiian Native Plants - The islands are full of wonderful plants.
We'll explore Hawaii more in the coming months!
