Just 130 miles off our coast lies the first and only marine national monument off the continental United States, a place protected from most human harms. The Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument is an incredible deep-sea wilderness that I’m lucky enough to have seen firsthand on research expeditions into its extreme underwater terrain. This World Oceans Day, read our very own Peter Auster's Op-Ed discussing the importance of the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument.

Last Friday, May 31 we had the honor to have staff from the American School for the Deaf visit us to walk campus in an effort to find ways to make Mystic Aquarium more inclusive to members of the Deaf, Hard of Hearing, and DeafBlind community. They also gave us the opportunity to try out experiencing what it is like for guests with low vision or who are blind by wearing different specialty glasses. Thank you American School for the Deaf for helping us continue to improve our campus and be accessible to all guests!
