The Bering Strait is a body of water about 82 kilometers wide at the nearest point. It separates Alaska in North America from Russia (or whatever it is called these days) in Asia.

Some scientists believe that at some time in the past this area was a connecting bridge (of land or a glacier) that allowed prehistoric people to migrate from Asia to the Western Hemisphere.
