See the OceanXplorers' team in action in this extraordinary National Geographic series produced by James Cameron
Presented alongside our OceanXperience exhibition, these screenings invite you to look deeper and experience the wonder of discovery, the power of science, and the vital role our oceans play in shaping life on Earth.
Through story and image, OceanXplorers connects us to a shared future—one where understanding the ocean is key to protecting it.
Filmed aboard the advanced OceanXplorer research vessel (which the OceanXperience exhibition is based on), this visually stunning series brings together cutting-edge technology, global expertise and a spirit of curiosity to uncover new insights about the ocean’s ecosystems—from the songs of humpback whales to life in the icy Arctic seas.
