Wednesday 12/19 7pm FREE MOVIE NIGHT: The Great Year
The Great Year The Great Year is a compelling documentary that explores the possibility that the fall of ancient civilizations around the globe, and the rise of modern civilization, might be related to our Sun’s motion around a companion star. This provocative film, narrated by James Earl Jones, may be the beginning of a whole new way to look at time and history, and just might set off a new scientific movement to find our Sun’s binary companion.The film examines evidence that ancient civilizations may have known of this celestial cycle and that our Sun may indeed display the characteristics of binary motion. This thought provoking film is not yet available for public viewing yet I was personally given an advanced copy by the producer...do not miss this sneak preview!
