Virtual Tour - Ocean Star Offshore Drilling Rig Museum

Ocean Star Drilling Rig Museum
(borrowed from http://www.oceanstaroec.com/index.htm)
The Ocean Star Offshore Drilling Rig Museum is located in Galveston.  I've been to the museum before, but it has been a long time since my visit.  The museum is actually on a retired offshore drilling rig situated over the water at Pier 19 near The Strand.  The museum's website has a 360 degree virtual tour that users can manipulate as they explore each floor of the museum.  It would be easy to pull this website up in a classroom, either as a guided class activity or an individual activity, giving students an offshore experience.
