The Endeavour Discovery, Ocean Literacy, Sunfish

Bron and Fam cover the announcement of the Endeavour discovery, developments in Ocean Literacy, and the science of sunfish: • Marinara’s maritime archaeology guru Rex Hunter discusses the recent announcement of the identification of 'The Endeavour' wreck in Newport Harbour, Rhode Island USA, and why the announcement has sparked some serious controversy. • We speak with Dr Prue Francis, Deakin University, for the first ‘Ocean Literacy’ for 2022. We’ll start global with the upcoming UNESCO Blue curriculum toolkit and how it can be used in Australian schools. Then we’ll move local to a survey called ‘OceansIQ’, the results of which will create a ‘best practice’ standard of ocean literacy teaching, and ultimately create an ocean literacy portal for marine education in Victoria. • And we speak with Dr. Marianne Nyegaard, Research Associate with the Auckland Museum in New Zealand, about her exciting research on Mola, the giant ocean sunfish, and the mysteries she is uncovering about the heaviest bony fish on the planet.
