p 　　The IMAX quot Cosmic Voyage quot film was made as a public service with sponsorship by the Smithsonian Air and Space museum On DVD, borrowed from my local public library, it plays at just over 三0 minutes with Morgan Freeman supplying a pleasing narrative As one would expect from an IMAX film, the image quality is superb and the Dolby 五 一 sound track is very well done Simulated cosmic explosions shake your walls That is, if you have a good powered subwoofer in your system br 　　The film takes a very useful approach to examining the size of the universe, from tiny sub-atomic particles to the vastness of the whole universe Fortunately, when God created the Universe he had dispatched a few angels with video cameras at different vantage points so we get to see actual footage from several billion years ago The film starts in Venice, where the discovery of the telescope originated, and uses a one-meter hoop as a reference point, then gradually goes larger by powers of 一0, e g 一0 meters, 一00, 一000, etc until we can see the whole universe Then it takes the opposite journey, going smaller by powers of 一0 until be see inside sub-atomic particles br 　　The story is well-woven with beautiful effects created especially for this film It is entertaining and educational at the same time All of quot oldsters quot can enjoy it for the scientific history we are already familiar with, and all the quot youngsters quot can enjoy it for the educational supplement it provides Overall a masterful film br 　　Any numerical quot rating quot of quot Cosmic Voyage quot is meaningless If one is looking for a superb film about our universe and modern theories of its formation, this one is hard to beat Kudos to IMAX and to the Air and Space Museum br 　　肉眼只有看见穹苍一角 凝睇夜空 是于见繁星点点 偶尔一颗流星划破夜空 是于你可曾看见恒星灭亡前的仅剩爆发？瞪视双手 你或会看见点点尘垢 是于你又可曾看见构成皮肤的原子在颤抖？因为眼不克不及见 我们只有纵驰想像 往摸索这个艰深宽广广大奔放的银河系 br 　　本片获第六十九届奥斯卡金像奖最好记载短片提名 p
