Oceans in The World


Did you know that there are five oceans in the world?

I learned from my Science lesson this week that most of the world's surface is covered with water. If all the water on the earth could be poured into huge tanks a mile long on each side a mile high, it would take 330 million tanks to hold the water. That many tanks would be enough to reach the sun. Each ocean is connected to the others like one vast ocean. Vast means very great. Most land areas are north of the equator while water areas are mostly what we see south of the equator. The equator line runs east and west.

Here is a picture of an ocean.
