[[Image:Deadsea1.jpg|right|thumb|[[NASA]] image of the Dead Sea]]
The '''Dead Sea''' is located in [[Israel]] and [[Jordan]], about 15 miles east of [[Jerusalem]]. It is extremely deep (averaging about 1,000 feet), salty (some parts containing the highest amount of salts possible), and the lowest body of water in the world. The Dead Sea is supplied by a number of smaller streams, springs, and the Jordan River.
