Join Dr. Gary Greenberg for “From the Sea to the Summit,” a stunning visual journey through the hidden microscopic world of Maui. From grains of sand, each a tiny record of Hawaii’s geological and biological history, to the intricate beauty of native flowers like the hibiscus and ʻōhiʻa lehua, this presentation reveals nature’s unseen wonders. Travel from the ocean’s edge to the summit of Haleakalā Crater — and even to the sands of the Moon — in a remarkable story of science, beauty, and Hawaiian heritage.
About “The Quietest Place on Earth”:
On the island of Maui, Haleakala rises 10,000 feet – nearly two miles – into the sky. The massive crater carries the unique distinction of being “the quietest place on Earth.” The exquisite stillness of its stark volcanic landscape inspires a variety of experiences ranging from spiritual to philosophical. A film by Emmy Award filmmaker Dr. Tom Vendetti.
