Flight of the Butterflies
The Heikoff Giant Dome Theater welcomes you with new, state-of-the-art seats and enhanced accommodations for an even more extraordinary experience at the Fleet Science Center.
The iconic monarch butterfly is a marvel of nature. It weighs less than a penny, yet it makes one of the longest migrations on Earth across a continent, with pinpoint navigational accuracy, to a secluded place it has never been.
In Flight of the Butterflies, you’ll join the monarchs' perilous and extraordinary journey while following an intrepid scientist’s 40-year search to find the monarchs’ secret hideaway. Join Dr. Fred Urquhart and his family on a decades-long quest to unravel a scientific mystery.
All documentary films are available on a first-come, first-served basis. No reservations are required.
