The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration established a presence in Second Life in April 2006 to Meteora as part of their online education program.

Since then they have established an extensive collection interactive educational demonstrations about the ocean and weather. In December 2007, NOAA added a Okeanos Island, which is particularly focussed on ocean science.
