Nautilus Live Update

Joey got his question answered today on Nautilus Live.  While sonar mapping the ocean floor today, Joey asked what the difference was between SONAR and RADAR.  It turns out that SONAR using sound waves while RADAR uses light waves.  SONAR is used under water because sound travels much faster and clearer under water than light waves travel.  Thanks for the great question, Joey!
