Film Night – “The Messengers” & “The Farthest”

December 3 @ 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm
The Nelson Astronomical Society is hosting a film evening at the Suter Theatre on the evening of December 3rd, with two very well rated astronomical documentaries being shown: 
“Messengers” and “The Farthest”.
“Messengers” (45 minutes)

A new, immersive documentary by Canadian director Jeffrey Zablotny, MESSENGERS features the South Pole neutrino experiment as part of a surreal, poetic exploration of three groundbreaking particle physics experiments across the world. From a sealed laboratory carved into a Japanese mountain to the icy, inhospitable expanse of Antarctica, Messengers invites us to drift into otherworldly metaphysical contemplation.

“The Farthest” (121 Minutes)
Crossing The Line Productions award winning 2017 documentary, THE FARTHEST is the story of the Voyager mission, launched in 1977, as told firsthand by the indelible characters who made the mission happen. They are a small band of resourceful, ambitious, and passionate men and women who reached for the stars … and succeeded.

When: Wednesday 03 December 2025, 7 pm.
Where: Suter Theatre208 Bridge Street, Nelson 7010.
