Spark: The Universe in Us

Where did the building blocks of life come from?

Travel inside a giant star nearing the end of its life, witness stellar corpses colliding, and experience the quiet demise of a Sun-like star.

With English narration by Diego Luna, the California Academy of Sciences’ 2023 original planetarium film Spark: The Universe in Us explores how hundreds of millions of celestial events have forged the elements that make up the Solar System, Earth, and us.

From the oxygen we breathe to the iron in our blood, the silicon in Earth’s mantle to the uranium that warms our planet’s core and helps give our planet its protective magnetic field, we owe it all to the stars!

New Distribution Showreel Posted

The shows we distribute from other producers

It's been a couple of years since we last updated our sampler showreels.

Sample the latest additions to our catalog in a quick 7-minute clip fest form (which has also been updated in its PDF form).

Besides the traditional long-term licenses we offer, many titles are available as short-term streaming rentals on FULLDOME OnDemand.

You can also preview our showreels as 360° spherical videos (like in a real planetarium), and stream or download many of them on our VR Dome Theater site.

Enjoy!
