Cosmic Voyage takes on a similar format as the National Film Board of Canada's "Cosmic Zoom", and IBM's classic "Powers of Ten" educational video. The film takes viewers on a journey through forty-two orders of magnitude, beginning at a celebration in Italy to zoom to the edge of the observable universe. The view descends back to earth, and later zooms in upon a raindrop on a leaf, to the level of sub-atomic particles ("quarks").In addition, the film offers some brief insight on the Big Bang Theory, black holes, and the development of our Solar System. It also simulates a journey through Fermilab's Tevatron particle accelerator in Chicago, where an atom collision is depicted. Nominated for an Academy Award, this 36-minute IMAX production offers a state-of-the-art, computer-generated journey through the universe, and tries to pinpoint the role of human beings cohabitating within its vastness. Among the topics included are a variety of the greatest scientific theories known to exist -- some of which had never before been visualized on film -- as well as a guided tour through the cosmos and solar system, and a look at the nature of black holes and exploding supernovas.
