There is no place where movement is as unique and different as it is underwater. Below the water's surface, there is no gravity, which allows aquatic creatures to enjoy a variety of fluid, innovative, and often impressive forms of movement.

The final frontier that animals had to conquer was the air… the infinite and boundless skies. Mother Nature’s aviators defied gravity and easily mastered the principles of aerodynamics, breaking free from their earthly ties to take flight. The ability to fly requires an astonishing array of combinations of wing design, body shape and weight, and energy requirements.
