More than fifty years after the Apollo missions, the Moon is once again at the center of space exploration. In January 2019, China achieved a historic first: landing the Chang’e 4 probe on the far side of the Moon. This scientific breakthrough reignited global interest in lunar exploration and marked the beginning of a new space race. Why are the world’s major space powers returning to the Moon? To uncover the history of our Solar System? To search for frozen water hidden in lunar craters? To build future Moon bases, exploit lunar resources, or use the Moon as a stepping stone to Mars and deep space? This documentary investigates the new race to the Moon, from China’s Chang’e missions to NASA’s Artemis program, the Orion spacecraft and the future Gateway lunar station. In France, CNES and IRAP are working with the Chinese space agency CNSA to develop advanced instruments capable of studying the lunar surface and detecting water. In Europe, ESA is contributing to the next generation of exploration vehicles for the Artemis program. Blending science, geopolitics, cutting-edge technology and

Who watches the sky for any likely threats? We start by visiting the La Sagra Observatory in Spain, in search of near-Earth asteroids. As a protection from astronomical catastrophes, a U.S. businessman builds underground bunkers. Will life be found in other planets? We shall ask children in Bogotá and find out through Spanish astronaut Pedro Duque what life is like in space. We shall also visit the largest Mexican observatory in San Pedro Martir, and get to know the project to build the largest optical telescope in the world, which will be installed in the North of Chile. We shall finish our journey at the Mexican ruins of Bonampak, where father and son will convey to us the importance of guarding the knowledge of our ancestors. ------- Chapters ▷ 0:00 - Intro ▷ 02:16 - Future of the Universe | Children of the Stars (9/10) ▷ 50:56 - Credits ------- ------- Children of the Stars is a voyage through the history of the people of America and their vision of the sky, since the earliest civilizations until the present.

How did the Universe and life begin? We shall visit ALMA, the largest radio-telescope in the world, where research is carried out to find out the origins of the Universe through 66 giant antennae placed in the Chilean high plateau. We’ll hear and dance a “cueca” dedicated to the Big Bang, played by a Chilean folklore group, and we shall look for life under extreme conditions in the almost Martian red waters of the Rio Tinto river, in Spain. At the La Silla Observatory, in Chile, we wonder whether it is possible that life on Earth was brought by a comet, and we shall also watch a mapuche indigenous community during the ritual del We Tripantu, that coincides with the Winter Solstice and marks the re-birth of life. ------- Chapters ▷ 0:00 - Intro ▷ 01:59 - The Origins of the Universe | Children of the Stars (5/10) ▷ 49:29 - Credits ------- ------- Children of the Stars is a voyage through the history of the people of America and their vision of the sky, since the earliest civilizations until
