The Natural History Museum of Utah's Annual Lecture Series
This event is free to attend with registration.
Uncovering the Ocean's Secrets
For two decades (and counting), Susan Casey has embedded with marine scientists as
they endeavor to solve the ocean’s many mysteries. Is the giant squid a ferocious
predator or a shy opportunist? What is it like at the bottom of the Mariana Trench? Why
are ancient marine microbes the source of our next-generation medicines? Did life begin
at a deep-sea hydrothermal vent? In this talk, Casey unveils the latest discoveries and
the technologies making them possible—and explains why a deeper understanding of
the undersea world is essential if we hope to thrive in the world above.
Book Signing
Immediately following the lecture, there will be a book signing with Susan Casey. A limited number of the speaker’s books will be available for purchase at the venue.
