Oceanography is a fairly new science.

Right!

False. Oceanography is actually considered one of the youngest sciences. It began to develop into a distinct field of study in the late 19th century. However, the exploration and understanding of the oceans have a long history that dates back thousands of years. Ancient civilizations like the Phoenicians, Greeks, and Polynesians had early knowledge about the sea and its currents, tides, and marine life. They made observations and developed practical knowledge for seafaring and navigation. Nevertheless, the formal and systematic study of the ocean as a scientific discipline is relatively recent in comparison to other sciences.
