Can you imagine taking a deep dive into the largest natural coral formation on Earth without leaving your desk? A joint effort between Google, the University of Queensland, and the Caitlin Group will soon allow you to explore into Australia‘s Great Barrier Reef through any device connected to the Internet. Dubbed the Catlin Seaview Survey, the project will study how tiger sharks, green turtles, manta rays, and other creatures are affected by global warming, while sharing the mysterious sea views with the world.
