What would 17th Century astronomer Johannes Kepler have seen if he had had today's advanced technology? The Astronomer's Dream, a 3D journey through a computer graphic visualization of space, will be followed by three short films on our neighboring planets. All four films are based on data obtained by NASA satellites. [Sony HD Programs © Sony PCL Inc.]Recommended for grades 5-12
