Universe

A full-dome digital star show
Two Small Pieces of Glass offers a stunning historical chronicle — from Galileo’s simple telescope developed 400 years ago to the latest discoveries in space — including interviews with the world’s leading astrophysicists. We’ll also envision the universe through the ages — and more recently through the eyes of science — by visiting ancient sites where our ancestors built great structures with special astronomical significance.
