Oh my god. I saw the 3D IMAX Hubble film.

I kept tearing up. IMAX is awesome — you are in the picture. Then, the technology of servicing the Hubble telescope as it is racing through space — that human beings can do such things is staggering. And then there’s “space,” and the billions of galaxies that you get to experience viscerally as you never do from knowing statistics.

The tears I think came from the contrast to how we behave. We kill each other? (Anybody watch the almost unwatchable for the horror of it, 10-part Steven Spielberg/Tom Hanks PACIFIC series, about World War II, that just concluded on HBO?) We run the planet on greed? How can we do this? No no no, it can’t be.

I keep thinking that if everyone saw this IMAX show, we would have a transformation of consciousness. How could you watch it and stay petty? If I were able to deliver one thing, with money not being the object, I would create IMAX theaters all over with invites for everyone to see this show free.
