Stumbled upon this interactive map of all underwater internet cables: https://www.submarinecablemap.com/

I find the FAQ section particularly helpful: https://www2.telegeography.com/submarine-cable-faqs-frequently-asked-questions

When students watch the “Wires, Cables, and WiFi” video, it shows a segment about the internet cables crossing the oceans. Sometimes this stirs up some questions from my students - questions that are answered in the FAQ above :smiley: (“Do sharks bite the cables?” :stuck_out_tongue:)

This is great. I used some static images and discussed it with students, but will add this as another resource.

Thanks
