Planetarium Film: Sea Monsters: A Prehistoric Adventure April 8, 2010

National Geographic's new giant-screen film "Sea Monsters: A Prehistoric Adventure," brings to life the extraordinary marine reptiles of the dinosaur age on the planetarium's 60 foot dome screen. From the giraffe-necked Styxosaurus and 20-foot "bulldog" fish Xiphactinus to the T-Rex of the ocean the 40-foot super-predator Tylosaurus these wondrous beasts defy imagination. The film takes audiences on a remarkable journey into the relatively unexplored world of the "other dinosaurs," those reptiles that lived beneath the water. Funded in part through a grant from the National Science Foundation, the film delivers the fascinating science behind what we know, and a vision of history's grandest ocean creatures.
