AQUAriums: raising general awareness for a better preservation of our oceans. Most water on Earth is salty, making up our Blue Planet's seas and oceans. Although oceans fill the three fifths of our Earth's surface, they still remain quite unknown to scientists: one can almost say they know a lot more about Mars's surface than about the abyss depths of our seas. Poorly known of and worse treated, oceans have become endangered systems nowadays: pollution of all kinds, species about to disappear due to overfishing -will there still be whales in the XXII century?-, rising temperatures, etc. That's why raising general awareness for a better preservation of our oceans becomes imperative. In this task, educative institutions as Aquariums and Sea museums of all kind become an imperative need. The pano was taken at the Aquarium in Donostia-San Sebastian, where I live ( more information -english included- at http://www.aquariumss.com ). It was the first natural science museum to be built in Spain and it opened in 1928. Behind the scene : how this panorama was made
