Hey space lovers! Ever wondered what life's like 400 km above Earth? 🚀 This week, attendees at the Glion Human Rights Dialogue in Switzerland got a taste of the Chinese mainland's first space documentary in stunning 8K.
Called 'Blue Planet Outside the Window' or 'Shenzhou-13', this 90-minute film was shot by astronauts Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping and Ye Guangfu during their six-month mission aboard the Chinese mainland's space station. Think epic Earth views 🌍, zero-G experiments and candid moments you'd never see on your usual Netflix binge.
It's narrated by Wang Yaping, the first female astronaut to venture on a mission to the Chinese mainland's space station and pull off a spacewalk. Her insider perspective turns complex tech talk into a relatable story, showing experiments float in mid-air and crew members sipping coffee in microgravity.
After premiering on the Chinese mainland in August and making its overseas debut in London last month, this film is now touring global forums. It's proof that space exploration is no longer sci-fi – it's real life, visible from our screens.
For us young tech-savvy folks in South Asia and Southeast Asia, imagine streaming this on your phone between classes or chai breaks. It's the perfect inspo boost to remind us that the sky isn't the limit anymore. 🌌
So next time you gaze up on a clear night, remember: our planet looks even more magical from 400 km up. Keep dreaming big and stay curious! ✨
