July Film Series at the Dossin Great Lakes Museum

July 18 2015 | 2:00pm to July 19 2015 | 1:55pm

Three short documentaries produced by the Noble Odyssey Foundation chronicling their underwater explorations of the Great Lakes will be shown at the Dossin Great Lakes Museum on Saturday, July 18 at 2 p.m. and Sunday, July 19 at 11:30 a.m. 

“Angels of the Sea” explores the shipwreck Emperor through the eyes of the divers as they descend over 200 feet into Lake Superior’s chilling waters off Isle Royale. The running time for this film is 25 minutes.

“Drowned Forests of Lake Huron” features a spruce and cedar forest that flourished in what is now lower Lake Huron. Remnants of this ancient forest remain 40 feet below present lake levels. Rapidly rising waters preserved the trees, revealing much about the conditions in which they grew. The running time for this film is 20 minutes.

 “Sinkholes” explores the drowned coastlines of the prehistoric Great Lakes. Dive into sinkholes, underwater springs and other features along shores that were exposed during extremely low water levels experienced some 10,000 years ago. The running time for this film is 17 minutes.

Other films from the Noble Odyssey Foundation will also show at the Dossin in August.
