The Atlantic Ocean is the second-largest of the world's five oceanic divisions, with an area of about 85,133,000 km 2 (32,870,000 sq mi). [2] It covers approximately 17% of Earth's surface and about 24% of its water surface area. During the Age of Discovery, it was known for separating the New World of the Americas ( North America and South ...
The world’s oceans have gone “crazy haywire,” according to a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration official, with record -high temperatures imperiling coral reefs.
The first crude image taken by the satellite Explorer 6shows a sunlit area of the Central Pacific Ocean and its cloud cover. The photo was taken when the satellite was about 17,000 mi (27,000 km) above the surface of the Earth on August 14, 1959. At the time, the satellite was crossing Mexico.
