SCUBA stands for self-contained underwater breathing apparatus. Learn the basics of recreational and professional scuba diving and the essential parts of the wet suit. Discover how the different parts of the tank apparatus work together to help divers breathe underwater, and the steps to become a certified diver. Also, learn how U.S. Navy divers use specialized scientific equipment to find artifacts as part of their underwater research. This program continues NMUSN’s commitment to offsite programming within the communities it serves.
