Worlds Beyond Earth

Take an exhilarating journey to the worlds that orbit our Sun and the unique conditions that make life on our planet Earth possible. Celebrate the extraordinary Age of Exploration carried out by robotic explorers, over the past 50 years with imagery from NASA, European Space Agency (ESA), and Japan Aerospace Exploration (JAXA) missions. Audiences will go on an epic adventure across the solar system, from our Moon, Mars and Venus to beyond the asteroid belt, to Jupiter and Saturn. Produced by the American Museum of Natural History in New York and narrated by Academy Award winner Lupita Nyong’o.
