According to the company, the production will use "high-resolution photography and videography to offer breathtaking, illuminating views of our home planet from space" to explore the changes that have occurred on Earth in just the past several decades.Targeted for release in 2015 and made in cooperation with NASA, the film will focus on humankind's future on – and off – the planet, "increasing our understanding of the solar system," while also virtually traveling light-years to other star systems to ponder the possibilities of Goldilocks, the term planetary scientists give to planets that fall inside a star's habitable zone, like the Earth.</BLOCKQUOTE> <center><a href="http://www.collectspace.com/news/news-032913a.html" target="AirLock"><img src="http://www.collectspace.com/images/news-032913a-lg.jpg" width="400" height="265" border="0"></a></center></TD></TR><TR bgcolor="#333333"><TD valign=top>Robert Pearlman</TD><TD>collectSPACE <BLOCKQUOTE><A HREF="http://www.collectspace.com/news/news-030515a-imax-space-station-movie.html">Astronauts filming new IMAX movie deliver 'deluge of beautiful images' from space</a>Astronauts on the International Space Station are about a third of the way through filming scenes for a new IMAX documentary to be released next year, the film's director revealed in a new interview.Toni Myers, the filmmaker behind "Hubble 3D" and IMAX's other shot-in-space giant screen movies, gave an update about her new project in a NASA interview on Wednesday (March 4).

Wow, that looks stunning and is (probably!) the closest any of us will get to the feeling of being aboard the ISS, looking back at Earth. Hopefully there'll be a subsequent home release.

Ian Limbrey

This film will definitely be a "value for money" and cannot wait to see it hopefully in London. If this doesn't inspire future astronauts I don't know what will!.

Those IMAX cameras sure have come a long way since the early 80s.

Jennifer Lawrence joins astronaut-studded 'A Beautiful Planet' IMAX premiere
Astronauts and cosmonauts joined a star on the blue — like Earth — carpet Saturday night (April 16) at the premiere of "A Beautiful Planet," the latest IMAX 3D film to be shot in space.
Academy Award-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence, who lends her voice to the movie as its narrator, joined the crew mates whose camera work aboard the International Space Station filled the eight-story tall screen at the AMC Loews theater in New York City's Lincoln Square.
