OVERVIEW from Planetary Collective on Vimeo.
On the 40th
anniversary of the famous ‘Blue Marble’ photograph taken of Earth from space,
Planetary Collective presents a short film documenting astronauts’
life-changing stories of seeing the Earth from the outside – a
perspective-altering experience often described as the Overview Effect.
The
Overview Effect, first described by author Frank White in 1987, is an
experience that transforms astronauts’ perspective of the planet and mankind’s
place upon it. Common features of the experience are a feeling of awe for the
planet, a profound understanding of the interconnection of all life, and a
renewed sense of responsibility for taking care of the environment.
‘Overview’
is a short film that explores this phenomenon through interviews with five
astronauts who have experienced the Overview Effect. The film also features
insights from commentators and thinkers on the wider implications and
importance of this understanding for society, and our relationship to the
environment.

"So," you might say, "when will we be ready for it?" I think you already know the answer, don't you? At the time when Human consciousness reaches a point where that which is most important is unification and not separation, it will happen. A point where conquering and power are not desirable ideas or assets. A point where humanity will measure the strength of its population by how healthy they are and not by economic growth. A point where coming together with your neighbor is the main objective to social consciousness, and not conquering them or eliminating them. That's coming, dear ones. It's a ways away, but it's coming. Look around the planet at the moment. The old energy leaders are obvious, are they not? It's like they are relics in a world of thinking that is passing them by. ….”
