아시다시피 갈라파고섬은 Charles Darwin이 진화론에 대한
기초 조사를 하였던 곳으로 유명하지요,현재 쓰고있는 지명 이름들은
Charles Darwin이썼던 지명을 그대로 쓰고 있답니다.
적도 주위의 태평양의 19개 화산섬과 암초로 이뤄진 섬 입니다.
최근 Google Maps' Street View team이 배낭에 특별 카매라를 장착하고
갈라파고의 여러섬을 샅샅이 그리고 바다속을 촬영해서 여기 올립니다.

A Trip to the Galapagos Islands
Google Maps' Street View team recently traveled to several locations in the Galapagos Islands, snapping panoramic views as they went. Using backpack-mounted cameras and underwater gear, they documented the unique diversity of the archipelago that helped inspire Darwin's theory of evolution. The government of Ecuador established the Galapagos National Park in 1959, setting aside 97% of the islands' land area for preservation. Collected here are images from Google's team as well as from other photographers, taking you on a virtual visit to these amazing islands. [30 photos]

2013. Bahia Cartago is a protected area not accessible
to tourists but the Street View Trekker was invited to
collect imagery there.

Scientists from the Galapagos National Park, the
University of California, Davis and the Charles Darwin
Foundation, have launched an investigation to unravel
the mysteries of the whale shark, a species believed to
be present in the oceans for at least 60 million years.
The first stage of the study involved placing
transmitters on the sharks.
