Voyage beyond the planet and experience our home through the eyes of Astronauts. Orbital is an epic journey from the Big Bang to the flourishing of life on Earth, to low Earth orbit. A new film by Guy Reid and Planetary Collective, Orbital transports you through an abstract landscape of light, inspired by bioluminescent earthly beings and atmospheric aurorae. Guided by the voices of the astronauts and cosmonauts of Constellation Coalition who have looked back and experienced the awe of our place in the universe, you will feel your own “Overview Effect” as you meditate on our planet in Shared Reality. The show will include a live portion including current night sky highlights along with visual tours of some incredible features of the solar system and the universe. Following the live portion of the show, the feature film will be presented on the dome theatre for a one-of-a-kind immersive experience.
