In 2024, nature’s power was on full display.

The documentary captures moments such as the April solar eclipse that cast 44 million people into near darkness. While captivating from the ground, only from space can the true scale of the event be appreciated, as a 115-mile shadow swept across the globe. Equally striking, viewers will see the destruction of a cargo ship crashing into Baltimore bridge. The damage caused is so extensive that it can be seen from hundreds of miles above the Earth. The film also chronicles the year’s extreme weather events, with the destructive effects of climate change visible in every corner of the earth – from the enormous floods that hit Kazakhstan, to the devastating hurricanes that hit the Caribbean and the Philippines. From space, global tensions and rising instability are unmistakable, from the devastating toll of the Ukraine war to the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.

From major national elections, dramatic solar storms and devastating wildfires, to pioneering spaceflights and earth’s breathtaking beauty, we gain a powerful new perspective on our world.
