The universe is a wondrous place and anyone who has explored any facet of it could attest to that fact. Herodotus, a writer in ancient Greece, compiled a list of wonderful things created by man's own hand. Later the list was expounded upon and the final tally of items numbered a lucky seven. It's not an easy task to select and narrow down a list of seven wonders of exploration technology, but agree or no, the selections in this book will amaze you. You will explore the depths of the seas with Alvin and soar out into the outer reaches of the ever expanding universe in once futuristic crafts, continually nursing your sense of wonder and awe. Prepare yourself for a serious jaw dropping, page turning experience in this book!

We, as a species began in the grasslands of Africa, but because of our nature we quickly became explorers due to our innate "urge to discover." Most of our knowledge about the oceans was limited by our inability to breach barriers to its depths. You will discover DSVs such as Alvin, ROVs and learn about their differences. You'll learn about stunning discoveries such as hydrothermal vents and will get a glimpse of the Titanic. You'll then swirl above the waves and into the Earth's atmosphere. Your eyes will widen when you learn how scientists developed a Climate Model, "a simplified version of Earth's weather." You'll get to take a peek at how these amazing men of science look at our past in order to predict our future.

This stunning book will astound the young, insatiable science students and keep them asking for more. This title is one in the "Seven Wonders Series," a series that is simply amazing. The information offered is not only historical, it offers many vignettes few may have heard of. The informative sidebars, photographs, and charts very nicely round out the already astounding text. In the back of the book is an excellent index, a glossary, a timeline, bibliography, source notes, and additional recommended book and website resources to explore. Interested in anything science? This is one book you really need to consider adding to your list!
