Between The Atom And The Star (1965)

“Between The Atom And The Star” explores the groundbreaking potential of the biosatellite program, designed to study the effects of weightlessness and altered gravitational environments on living organisms. The film discusses various experiments involving frog eggs, sea urchin eggs, and plants to understand how gravity influences cellular division, plant growth, and the overall physiological well-being of organisms. It also highlights the significance of these findings for future manned space missions, particularly regarding the health and performance of astronauts in microgravity conditions. The research aims to bridge the gap between atomic and cosmic biology, providing insights into the fundamental processes of life.
