Watched

Heart of the Whale
- Only 1 show saw today which is as above. Its a documentary researching on how the book was written. Of course this is to garner interest of people in Whales as the movie Heart of the Sea with Chris Hemsworth is in the cinema. But it was indeed an unexpected scientific documentary. I already know that Whale oil was a commodity in those days before Kerosene was discovered, and how the whales population was threatened due to its hunting. But never knew that a whale expedition can bring a ship with her crew years at sea traveling thousand of miles. But can Sperm Whale (the Moby Dick species is) be killers ? But how they capture and kill whales is interesting, rather old fashion and tedious but it worked in those days. Good and fair account of a documentary.
