Fascinating docu on the history and discoveries of Voyager.

Ultimately, The Farthest is a traditional documentary, brimming with detail and entertainment, and Reynolds does not even need to include Neil Degrasse Tyson's shtick.

The Farthest is full of experts who talk lovingly and precisely on their pet subject; their giddy enthusiasm somehow not just thrilling and informative, but comforting.

Made under the BBC's Storyville banner, it's bound to appear on 온라인카지노추천 before long, but those who enjoy marvelling at the solar system's planets may prefer a cinema screening.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 5, 2017
It's like one of those great Horizon episodes from the 1980s or 90s, before all science docs started sounding as if they were written for overexcited seven-year-olds.

The two Voyager space probes are the subjects of this appropriately epic documentary, full of lavish visuals, brain-frying statistics and infectiously enthusiastic Nasa boffins.

Accessible, inspirational and utterly fascinating.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 31, 2017
The documentary's greatest strength lies in the way Reynolds allows the scientific to mix with the philosophical and the deeply emotional.
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Aug 30, 2017
With emphasis on Earth's microscopic standing within an infinite cosmos, as well as the sobering fact that Voyager 1 will continue travelling for millions of years, outliving mankind, the film's scope is truly astronomical.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 28, 2017
It's rare for a film to make one swell with pride about something he or she had no direct hand in, but "The Farthest" accomplishes that feat with aplomb.

The accounts of scientists, whose enthusiasm still glows, is as wondrous as the technology seen here.

For anyone who ever doubted that technology could contain philosophy, that physics could be metaphorical poetry, that science is the closest force to magic that we will ever know: watch The Farthest.
