Destination: Pluto

In this 13-part charter series produced for the new CuriosityStream.com, we follow the historic New Horizons mission as it flies in for our first close look at the last unexplored planet in our solar system, Pluto.  The series examines the Pluto planet controversy, the personal stakes of mission scientists, as well as the challenges of a long duration spaceflight of nine years, and shares with viewers the thrill of discovery as the strange, unique geography of Pluto and its giant moon Charon is revealed for the first time.  This series led to a one-hour spin-off also produced by SkyWorks for CuriosityStream, and to a virtual reality recreation of three geologically unique locations on the surface of Pluto called “Destination: Pluto, the VR Experience.”
