A Scroll-able History of Earth’s Oceans

For its latest issue “Water,” Nautilus takes a look back at the evolution of our often unpredictable oceans. A short, scrolling interactive history provides playful animated backgrounds to colorfully illustrate each major phase of our seas, beginning with the centuries of rain it required to initially fill in our beaches. Over the next billions of years, varying water temperatures, winds and mass currents all contributed to create the vast, life-giving oceans of today. Visit Nautilus for the full experience.
