- Highly recommend this program to anyone interested in astronomy and/or photography.
- NOTE: not playable on (any?) standalone players and requires a decent machine for desktop playback too.
"This state-of-the-art documentary introduces viewers to the rewards of first-person, hands-on astronomy. Written, produced and narrated by award-winning filmmaker, journalist and best-selling author Timothy Ferris, the program is based on Ferris' book, named one of the 10 best books of the year by the New York Times. The program features high-definition astrophotography and introduces men and women, both professionals and amateurs, who have seen and captured phenomenal images within and beyond our solar system and galaxy."
