The goal for today was to assemble the ribs and mandibles. Academy Studios achieved that goal and also assembled the upper limbs of the flippers. There are smaller bones to attach and then work on the finishing details begins. At this point, we are on time to have the Blue Whale skeleton fully articulated by Friday, November 19.
