National Geographic launches newest website

In coordination with Blue State Digital, National Geographic launched Ocean Now's website yesterday.

Ocean Now is a project designed to study the last healthy, undisturbed places in the ocean. Right now, Dr. Enric Sala is leading a talented team of scientists, explorers, photographers and videographers on an expedition to the southern Line Islands in the South Pacific, where very few humans have gone before.

The website will allow users to track the journey every step of the way - providing unprecedented access for an expedition of this kind. Members of the Ocean Now crew are reporting back to dry land daily with updates of what they have seen, and more stunning pictures and breath-taking video are on the way.

The crew is also asking anyone to pose questions of them, which they will be answering from the ship on a regular basis.
