Galapagos
Presented by the Smithsonian Institution and IMAX®, and using IMAX 3D® technology, Galapagos vividly documents an eight-week expedition to the islands and surrounding waters.
Part adventure, part scientific expedition, part personal quest, and part fantastic voyage, this unprecedented nonfiction film takes audiences on a journey with marine biologist Dr. Carole Baldwin from the Smithsonian Institution's Museum of Natural History on her first trips to the famed Galapagos Islands.
An amazingly immersive cinematic experience, Galapagos delves deep into the largely unknown waters surrounding the volcanic archipelago to explore the natural wonders of a realm that is truly a living natural science laboratory.
Using Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution's research vessel, the SEWARD JOHNSON, as the mother ship and their high-tech submersible JOHNSON-SEA-LINK, the highly distinguished research and filmmaking team deployed technology light years ahead of the crude instruments Charles Darwin had at his disposal during his famous 1835 visit to the region.
