NOWNESS featured a great post this morning on
Christopher Riley's "First Orbit", a 108 minute film that retraces the journey made by soviet cosmonaut, Yuri Gagarin, the first man to enter space. Shot in the International Space station by a
stronaut Paolo Nespoli, and woven together with historic sound recordings of Gagarin and an original score by composer Philip Sheppard, the short that NOWNESS presents is a preview of the film.
I strongly suggest a viewing. To view our the planet from this perspective somehow makes me feel more connected to its fragility, more acutely aware of its great indifference to the impasse of time.
