| In June 2002, astronomers at U.C. Berkeley announced one of the most exciting discoveries in recent science. In the race to detect extra-solar planets -planets orbiting around other stars in our galaxy- they had hit the jackpot: a planet that looked like it could belong to our own solar system..
In this new 90-minute documentary, we follow the Planet Hunters as they experience the pure, unadulterated joy of discovery. Come see an up-to-the-minute digitally-realized tour of our solar system and beyond. Share with the excitement of the scientists who discover extrasolar planets. The movie also dips into the past explaining how indigenous peoples such as the first Hawaiians used the stars to navigate their way to a new world. |
