Insects Through the Winter(en)

This film delves into the life cycles of various insects, highlighting their survival and adaptive strategies through the seasons. It showcases insects like dragonflies and preying mantises in their summer activities of feeding and reproducing, and then shifts focus to their unique winter survival tactics. The film particularly emphasizes the praying mantis's method of laying eggs in a protective case to ensure species continuity. Other species' adaptations are explored, such as aphids laying eggs on tree bark and swallowtail caterpillars forming chrysalises. It also touches on different hibernation methods and the renewal of life cycles in spring, with a new generation of insects emerging to continue the cycle of life. The documentary underscores the diverse and fascinating ways insects adapt to their environments throughout the year.

LIFE BEYOND II: The Museum of Alien Life(en)

What if there was a museum that contained every type of life form in the universe? This experience takes you on a tour through the possible forms alien life might take, from the eerily familiar to the utterly exotic, ranging from the inside of the Earth to the most hostile corners of the universe. New research is upending our idea of life and where it could be hiding: not just on Earth-like planets, where beings could mimic what our planet has produced, but in far flung places like the hearts of dead stars and the rings of gas giant planets. Nowhere in the universe is off limits. Only when we know what else is out there will we truly know ourselves. This thought experiment will give us a glimpse into what could be out there, how we might find it, and just how far nature’s imagination might stretch.
