For anyone who ever doubted that technology could contain philosophy, that physics could be metaphorical poetry, that science is the closest force to magic that we will ever know: watch The Farthest.
Imagine the late Chuck Berry and Carl Sagan dancing to a cosmic beat, and you've caught the central idea behind The Farthest, an irresistible NASA instant classic about the conquest of space - via the Voyager missions.
Emer Reynolds' magnificent account of the creation of Voyager I, a Nasa space probe launched in 1977 with the noble aim of introducing ourselves to extraterrestrials.
It's rare for a film to make one swell with pride about something he or she had no direct hand in, but "The Farthest" accomplishes that feat with aplomb.
