Science communication at its peak
These experiences of space and our planet are fantastic and completely immersive. Never experienced anything like it but learnt a huge amount in short experiences from gravity, the planets, electromagnetic energy to black holes and waves all done with professional actors voices leading us through. One tip is to make sure you stand up with space around you so you can interact with the experiences.
How do I start it?
This is more a question than a review... How do I select the chapters, or do anything? As soon as the app launches my controllers disappear and I can't do anything?!?!
HORRIBLE APP
These have to be paid reviews because this app is a piece of junk. It is not even visually pleasing, and it's super boring. Save your money!
Why doesn't it support crossbuy?
Why doesn't it support crossbuy? It's not right to have to buy pc version again.
Not impressed
Sorry, I didn't get it. The visuals were okay, but there's much better free stuff on YouTube and in Meta TV. Much better. The "science" behind the visuals is not really science at all - just poetic interpretations. The graphics are also more metaphorical to some degree rather than an attempt to truly visualise the evolution of the Universe. I'd say just save your money... there's much better free content.
Incredible.
Sublime. A top tier experience that should not be overlooked.
