A NEW VIEW OF THE MOON
4 mins | Directed by: Wylie Overstreet
Wylie Overstreet was hanging out in his L.A. apartment one night and, out of boredom, decided to take his high-powered telescope out to the street to peer at the moon. Pretty soon people began wandering up and asking him what he was up to. When he showed them, they nearly fell over in awe. A New View of the Moon is just the reminder we need to keep looking up. Because as Galileo said, back in 1610, “it’s a beautiful and wondrous sight to behold the body of the moon.”

Spoiler alert: Sleeper hit ahead. And don’t think that’s because I have a serious soft spot for science nerd docs. But, maybe. Bottom line: Do yourself a favor and find out. Find out if your heartstrings are strummed and your funny bones tickled by the goodness and the goofiness of teenage prodigies from around the world, competing against 1,700 other of their brilliant Generation Z ilk (narrowed down from 7 million original hopefuls), to win recognition, prestige, opportunity and, for just one among them, a $75,000 cash prize.
