Teens visit the Black Sea at the San Antonio Public Library

To kick off of the new season of oceanic exploration as part of The JASON Project on July 18, the Central Library hosted more than 30 teens from the community and from the Boys & Girls Club of San Antonio and invited them to engage in a live question and answer session with an American school teacher who is spending the next several months aboard the Nautilus, an exploratory vehicle currently traveling deep in the Black Sea near Turkey. Teens were able to find out why the Black Sea is called the Black Sea, why there is little sea life in that area of the ocean, and much more. The Central Library Teen Services Department hosts The JASON Project as part of its continued outreach to teens in the community to engage them. Teens can visit the Central Library seven days a week to watch live and recorded feeds from the Nautilus. There is no charge to attend. NOWCastSA webcast the live Q&A.
