The Antarctica Experience with David Wenham - Immersive Worlds
Transport yourself to a world of ice and snow through the wonder of virtual reality and explore a day in the life of Australian Antarctic scientists as they research Antarctica from Davis Research Station.
With narration by David Wenham (Lord of the Rings, Elvis, Moulin Rouge), 360-degree camera and stunning 4K vision, you’ll see first-hand the work that goes into understanding climate change, managing ecosystems, researching sustainability, and conserving wildlife.
Along the way, you will:
- Explore Antarctica from a helicopter cockpit, even landing on glaciers.
- Discover the resident penguin colony and see the new chicks.
- Explore Davis Station and the logistics that go into surviving the harsh Antarctic conditions.
- View the spectacular Southern Lights in high definition.
