Water aerobics can be beneficial for divers who want to improve their control and stamina underwater while minimizing impact on their joints. These targeted water aerobics exercises utilize aqua dumbbells and focus on enhancing a diver’s core stability, strength, and endurance.
A lifetime’s worth of superb diving awaits adventurous divers in the cool, current-swept waters surrounding British Columbia’s Vancouver Island.
In November 2021 I was diving on the HMHS Letitia shipwreck in Halifax Harbour, Nova Scotia, one of Canada’s Maritime provinces. The British hospital ship, which lies near a gray seal colony, ran aground and sank in 1917 while returning from Liverpool, England, with wounded Canadian soldiers.

I’m glad I chose otherwise.
Underwater environments simulate the conditions of space exploration and allow NASA to test equipment, perform research, and prepare for future missions in extreme settings such as the moon or Mars. Being underwater replicates the isolation, confined spaces, and limited resources astronauts experience in space.
I am a 55-year-old avid diver who made about 300 dives in 2023, most of which were coldwater shore-entry dives near San Diego, California, to below 100 feet (30 meters). […]

A recent dive trip changed the lives of everyone involved, and I hope this story might help save another life. About 30 days before the trip, I was talking to […]
Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder’s Shields Lab — led by Wyatt Shields, PhD, an assistant professor ofchemical and biological engineering — are investigating how engineered microparticles, specifically designed for use in biomedicine, can be used in areas such as biosensing, where they bind to certain molecules or cells to enable drug delivery and the detection of biological conditions.
