Taglines

Overview

Released in 2012, this 52-minute public television documentary reveals the motivations, struggles and ultimate triumphs of the people designing and building the most elaborate ground-based astronomical observatory ever, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). The program documents some of the first observations made by the telescope, foreshadowing the scientific rewards that will be its heritage. Filmed on three continents--and at altitudes ranging from sea level to 16,500 feet--the film features breathtaking views of Chile's remote Atacama Desert, and demonstrates the lengths to which humans will go to understand the universe they call home.

Overview

Deze 52 minuten durende openbare televisiedocumentaire, uitgebracht in 2012, onthult de motivaties, worstelingen en ultieme triomfen van de mensen die het meest uitgebreide astronomische observatorium op de grond ooit hebben ontworpen en gebouwd: de Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). Het programma documenteert enkele van de eerste waarnemingen die door de telescoop zijn gedaan, en vormt een voorbode van de wetenschappelijke beloningen die zijn erfgoed zullen zijn. Gefilmd op drie continenten – en op hoogtes variërend van zeeniveau tot 5.000 meter – biedt de film adembenemende uitzichten op de afgelegen Atacama-woestijn in Chili, en laat zien hoe ver mensen zullen gaan om het universum dat zij hun thuis noemen te begrijpen.
