Filmed in the Worlds largest film format, 15/70mm, and for the first time, fully converted for the Full Dome Digital immersive cinema experience.

From the ancient past we travel to the cutting edge of the present. Unprecedented cooperation by the European Space Agency, NASA , the Japanese Space Agency and many others made possible the capture and presentation of images that have never been seen before - to the delight of the scientists working on the projects. The scientists simply had never had the millions of dollars required to translate the data into high definition motion pictures.
