"Blue Whales: Return of the Giants" takes you on a journey of a lifetime to explore the world of the magnificent blue whale, a species rebounding from the brink of extinction. Blue whales are the largest animals ever to have lived—bigger than any dinosaur—yet we know surprisingly little about them. Blue Whales will transform our understanding of these iconic creatures. The film follows two scientific expeditions: one, a high-risk mission to find a missing population of blue whales not seen in 50 years; and the other, to join Diane Gendron, the “Blue Whale Whisperer,” in Mexico’s Gulf of California, where she and her team explore the important role these remarkable animals play in the health of our oceans. The film provides an unforgettable window into the lives these animals live—and the extremes scientists must endure to study them. Joined by a cast of supporting characters—from dolphins and sperm whales to sea lions and orcas—the blue whale finally gets its turn to be a star. Experience it life-size on the Giant Dome screen! Blue Whales is narrated by award-winning actor Andy Serkis. This film was produced by Oceanic Films with major funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and is the third collaboration between SK Films and HHMI Tangled Bank Studios. One documentary film is included with a Fleet Experience admission ticket. You may purchase a Fleet Experience admission ticket on-line and scan at the Fleet Science Center’s entrance on your date of choice. All documentary films are available on a first-come, first-served basis. No reservations are required. Individual tickets for Blue Whales showtimes are not available. Doors to the theater open approximately 10 minutes prior to showtimes, and no late entry will be allowed once the film has begun. Please note that school groups may be in attendance at 11 a.m. films Monday through Thursday. Visit: https://www.fleetscience.org/films/blue-whales Fleet Science Center on Instagram and Facebook
