SAT, Hubblo and the Dorothy Project present the Umbra Mission - Relive the solar eclipse of April 8, 2024, from a totally unique vantage point 34 km up in the stratosphere. A 360° immersive experience that will transport you to the gates of space to give you an astronaut’s view of this unforgettable celestial event.

On April 8, 2024, a small team of Quebec artists, scientists and videographers launched a module called “Dorothy” equipped with several 360° cameras into the stratosphere, and succeeded in capturing images of the Moon’s shadow crossing the Megantic region at over 4,000 kph. The result is a dreamlike journey to the gates of space, combining popular science, philosophy and poetry for the whole family.
