How do YOU pronounce “buoy”? 🛟

A) Boy
B) Boo-ee

Turns out, this became a surprisingly important detail while creating our Oceans exhibition!

Australians generally say “boy”, while in American English you’ll often hear “boo-ee”. And because Oceans has been designed to eventually travel around the world, we decided to sidestep the whole debate and not say “buoy” in the video content of the exhibition at all.

Speaking of buoys, meet Michael and Kim from our Experience Curation team. They've spent months researching and developing the science and stories you'll discover throughout Oceans.

They take their jobs very seriously.

Oceans is made possible with the support of Minderoo Foundation.

How many people did it take to make Oceans?

Quite a few, as it turns out. Including some from the other side of the world…

While creating our new Oceans exhibition, we reached out to scientists, researchers, photographers and experts around the world. And they sent us some pretty incredible things.

🌊 Oceans: The World Beneath the Waves opens at Scitech on 31 October.

Oceans is made possible with the support of Minderoo Foundation.

This is where our Oceans story begins 🌊

Scitech and Minderoo Foundation have partnered up to work on something pretty big… Oceans: The World Beneath the Waves, our brand-new feature exhibition exploring the incredible science, technology and innovation that help us understand and conserve our oceans.

But first, we wanted to ask:
What does the ocean mean to you?

For Anastasia Martinez from Minderoo Foundation, it means everything.

Over the next month, we’ll take you behind the scenes and share some of the people, stories and unexpected moments that have brought Oceans to life.

Opening 31 October.
