The Hunt for Planet B

A space documentary which goes full-on Climate Alarmist and pro-government spending / NASA legitimation. CNN better stick to what they are good in: Fake news, smear pieces, fluff pieces and one-sided political opinion.

A waste of time if you expect real new info on space exploration, instead they begin to explore characters of the scientists involved and push climate alarmist propaganda.

Alex Jones also gets mentioned and featured as evil climate change denier. What a joke!

For a buff the doccie is an excellent background to our search for life beyond the Earth. The Hubble Space Telescope opened the heavens for us in 1990, but the James Webb telescope will go back to the edges of the universe. It is mind boggling how far we as a species have progressed, but will we survive as a species to get the results that we are not alone? Right now we are in the middle of yet another mad man who invaded another country for no reason at all and the end result is unknown. Other species on other planets may have reached similar situations, hence we have not found any evidence of life yet up to 40 light years away.

Is there other life out there somewhere? Undoubtedly, but space is so large that our own galaxy alone is more than 120 000 light years across. Imagine that there is intelligent life say 2 000 light years away from us, it will then take 2 000 years to say hello and wait another 2 000 years for their reply. Our galaxy is one of billions of other galaxies and space is still expanding at a speed beyond the speed of light.

The James Webb Space Telescope will help in making other important discoveries and possibly even find life out there, but we will never be able to visit them in normal space-time. Who knows we may in years to come be able to create worm holes, but currently we are then thinking about science fiction.

In my opinion they zigged when a zag was needed. Life is out there no question. If its not then there could be no us. Statistically intellegent life is out in the galaxy, not to mention may have even visited earth at some point in the last 3 billion yrs of life. Its a good story n msg the movie, but nothing about the telescope and is almost misogynistic acting like its a big deal for girls to be PHDs or engineers. Kinda projects a false image of society as if academics care about ur gender/sex when all they care about is merit and knowledge which is what the telescope is about.

What is worse than a poorly made documentary is a Woke one.

I was excited to get an actual look at the Webb Telescooe and get a real behind the screen look. This was not that Documentary.... What you get is a Pushed emotional look at primarily women that either have dime role in the Telescope or in the use of it. This would not be wrong if in fact it was primarily women who were involved, it is not. Also this is mot about the physical Telescope it's about the women using the Telescope to push the narrative.

Not only is the Telescope itself not really the topic, you actually learn little you could not learn in a 5 minute Youtube video about the scope.

Also filmed entirely before launch itself.

Sad documentary due to the bias from the film makers.

Complaining about: Not enough women working in the field Not enough diversity on the project.

Not enough Greta Thunderberg clones.

Could have been interesting if they'd have stayed with the science--rather than the opinions and speculations of non-professionals and climate protesters.
