Dr. Gary Peterson - National Geographic Consultant

Dr. Gary Peterson, expert on North American stratigraphy, provides his knowledge as a Science Consultant for the National Geographic’s new giant-screen film SEA MONSTERS: A Prehistoric Adventure. This film submerges audiences in an 80-million-year-old scientific mystery. Produced by National Geographic, narrated by Tony Award-winning actor Liev Schreiber and featuring original music by Peter Gabriel, SEA MONSTERS: A Prehistoric Adventure brings to life the most bizarre, ferocious and fascinating creatures to ever inhabit Earth’s oceans. 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 combines dynamic, state-of-the-art animation with exciting paleontological discoveries around the world to take audiences on a remarkable journey into the unexplored world of ocean reptiles that lived during Earth’s Cretaceous Period. Now playing at the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center IMAX® Dome Theater
