Long Center, UT College of Natural Sciences, and Sandbox Films
Presents Reel Science: Fireball
Hear from leading researchers
and experts in this film series that is a Long Center partnership with
The University of Texas at Austin College of Natural Sciences. Each
event will feature an in-person presentation and a science-themed
documentary from Sandbox Films, the Oscar-nominated production studio
that illuminates the art and beauty of scientific inquiry: humankind's
weird, messy, brilliant way of navigating the world.
Over
billions of years, extraterrestrial bombardments have reshaped the
very nature of our planet, causing species to perish or flourish - and
perhaps even seeding the initial building blocks for life on Earth.
Today we can still hear the echo of these meteor impacts, ringing
through culture, mythology, and scientific research. Fireball takes
viewers into the mystery at the heart of these fallen stones,
exploring their origins and their impacts on civilization.
Film
recommended for older children due to imagery. For more information,
