TLDR

It's hard to not make space look cool.

What it's about

A documentary that follows the journey of the James Webb Space Telescope as it travels to its destination and begins to unfold its secrets about the universe.

The take

Unknown's next documentary installment takes us to the stars following the construction and deployment of the James Webb Space Telescope. The documentary centers on the behind-the-scenes of launching the telescope, which eradicated all possible errors as it was the most expensive operation to enter space without human intervention. Explanations are palatable, and the highlights of their successes and failures are enough for casual viewers. Packed with emotion from NASA's scientists and engineers (and global spectators during Covid), the investment in this project and journey carry the film even though the concepts are too large to condense. 

What stands out

Space has its fans, and the wonders of the stars and galaxies beyond are always awe-inspiring. But what pays off the most is the images from the telescope. The terrifying beauty of space unfolds in blooming clusters of stars, and the swirling lights of galaxies were as breathtaking as expected. The documentary is stilted when it condenses the material, but the wonder is restored with grand visuals.
