Late last week 13 year old Ulie Offey finished her extensive research from the past two years. She has been working out of her basement in Rye, New Hampshire to create a form of communication to speak with whales. She was successful in her attempts and as of Monday, has communicated with the first whale. Ulie came across this idea while watching a century old movie with her mom.

They are expecting to be able to use this new technology to better understand whale
