Wylie Overstreet and Alex Gorosh make incredible short science films that examine the "most overlooked facet of our universe: its astonishing scale".
Wylie says that one night he was bored in his apartment and decided to take his telescope out to the sidewalk. He pointed it up and within a few minutes people started walking over and asking what this thing was. He invited them to look at the moon.
The commonality of reactions is a poignant reminder that we all share the same planet and we all have the same reaction to the universe we live in. As one of the many enthusiastic commenters says: "I can't be the only person who started crying while watching this."
