The Museum of Science is offering a three-pronged look at the Shackleton saga. In one intriguing display, a typical meal of seal steak, penguin liver, boiled seaweed and tea, eaten by the crewmen who remained on Elephant Island, is shown to have 1,200 calories. We had suffered, starved and triumphed. We had seen God in his splendors and heard the text that nature renders. We had reached the naked soul of man.
Visitors can pickup their on-line ticket orders at a kiosk in the museum lobby.
The Mugar Omni Theater is accessible for wheelchair users. Viewers with visual impairments can request headphones with a descriptive narration of the film.
