From the beginning of their history, humans have sought contact with others. Following this path, we invented writing, radio, telephone and finally – the Internet. We overcame language barriers, problems related to distance and information flow time. Thanks to modern technologies and communication devices, we are changing the world and ourselves. Connected with an invisible network, we remain in touch 24/7. Hello Earth takes us on a journey following the cosmic probes that carry messages from the Earth for future generations and, possible, for other inhabitants of the Universe.
It is a fulldome animation about the essence of human communication, intended for projections on the Planetarium’s spherical screen.
