The heart of the Steinhart Aquarium, Water Planet focuses on the universality of water wherever there is life, investigating the adaptations by organisms to live in the myriad niches resulting from water's many differences in chemistry, abundance or scarcity, temperature, and motion.

Walls are milled expanses that integrate a complex array of tanks, graphics, monitors and projection into seamless, flowing surfaces.
