Narrated by Pedro Pascal, *Encuentros en la Vía Láctea* explores the chance collisions that shaped our solar system, from wandering stars and comets to glowing clouds of gas and dust. For the first time, you can witness the ongoing, dramatic merger of our galaxy with a satellite galaxy, rendered in stunning detail using real data from the European Space Agency’s Gaia mission. It’s a cosmic story built by space scientists, artists, and visualization experts—equal parts science and spectacle.
