comes to the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. Shackletons
Antarctic Adventure brings the true story of an epic struggle
for existence to the Phipps IMAX® Theater. Stranded and hopeless
at the bottom of the world, Sir Ernest Shackleton and his twenty-seven-man
crew endured the harshest living conditions imaginable, surviving
