Spiral Galaxy, the Milky Way
The
discovery of the place of our planet between the stars has been a slow one. What
does the universe look like? Important revelations regarding this question have
been made by various Dutch scientists between 1886 and 1955, which ultimately led
to the creation of the first map of our Milky Way. In this inspiring
documentary scientists who worked on that process and are still alive tell
about the story and the science behind these revolutionary discoveries.
