Swampscott Students Send 'Big Blue' Ocean Float Into Pacific

Original: Swampscott Students Take Their Classroom to the Pacific With ‘Big Blue’ Ocean Float

Students in Swampscott have launched a science project called 'Big Blue', an ocean float deployed in the Pacific Ocean that turns the open sea into an extension of their classroom. The float is expected to let pupils track real ocean data from Massachusetts, connecting their lessons to ongoing voyages and marine research far from home.

Why now: Local pride and curiosity about a student-built float drifting in the Pacific are drawing attention.
