‘3D Space Safari’ – A stellar exploration of outer space in Malayalam cinema

During a special screening of the Malayalam 3D film 3D Space Safari, middle school students from SBOA School in Kochi couldn’t contain their excitement. As a meteorite shower rained down on the screen, sending bright pieces of rock toward the audience, many jumped from their seats. Later, when Chandrayaan 3 soared overhead, some kids eagerly reached out, trying to touch it.

But this film isn’t just a visual spectacle—it's a fascinating journey into space that's both informative and engaging. Even for those with only a casual interest in astronomy, 3D Space Safari offers captivating insights into the solar system, planets, and the Milky Way. One particularly intriguing aspect of the film is how it illustrates what different planets would look like if they replaced the moon in Earth's sky.

Well-researched and executed with finesse, 3D Space Safari is a slick and immersive cinematic experience, offering both entertainment and education.
