Narrated by Academy-Award nominated actor Liam Neeson, Black Holes: the Other Side of Infinity brings the current science of black holes to the dome screen. Supported by grants from NASA's high-energy GLAST telescope project and the National Science Foundation, this cutting-edge fulldome production features high-resolution, animated visualizations of cosmic phenomena, working with data generated by computer simulations.
Audiences will be dazzled with striking, immersive animations of the formation of the early universe, star birth and death, the collision of giant galaxies, and a simulated flight to a supermassive black hole lurking at the center of our own Milky Way Galaxy. The program is accompanied extensive educational resources (Educator's Guide and website) and a 4-minute pre-show video, "Black Hole Hunters."
Thomas Lucas Productions in collaboration with Denver Museum of Nature & Science, NOVA and the National Center for Supercomputing Applications. Available April 2006. 24 minutes.
