Listen to the sounds of the Earth with Global Soundscapes, a captivating exploration of Earth's symphony through breathtaking visuals, surround sound, and live presentations. Join us in our Heikoff Giant Dome Theater and be taken on a sound safari to explore the health of our planet and experience the science of sound.
Guided by a Fleet Educator, you can investigate the dramatic soundscapes of Costa Rica’s rainforests, Hawaii’s coral reefs, and Mongolia’s vast grasslands. Learn about the tools that scientists use to record and analyze sounds. Explore basic acoustics through interactive activities and incredible slow-motion footage of pulsating musical instruments, vibrating vocal cords, and slobbering “raspberries.”
With Global Soundscapes’ unique format, you’ll hear the Earth in a whole new way!
The shows are 45 minutes long and appropriate for grades K–6.
