The Bering Strait is a narrow body of water that separates the eastern tip of Siberia in Russia from the western coast of Alaska in the United States. It connects the Chukchi Sea in the north with the Bering Sea in the south. The strait is approximately 85 kilometers (53 miles) wide at its narrowest point and has a depth of around 30-50 meters (98-164 feet). It is an important maritime route for ships traveling between the Pacific Ocean and the Arctic Ocean. Additionally, it is historically significant as it is believed to have been the land bridge that early humans used to migrate from Asia to the Americas during the ice age.
