PITTSBURGH — A new underwater adventure, "Under the Sea," filmed entirely with IMAX cameras for a vivid, immersive viewing experience, has opened at the Carnegie Science Center's Rangos Omnimax Theater, One Allegheny Ave., North Side.

Narrated by Jim Carey, "Under the Sea" is rated G for general audiences and is 40 minutes long. The film will continue running through the summer.

Other Omnimax films continuing are "Grand Canyon Adventure: River at Risk" and "Mummies: Secrets of the Pharaohs."
