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.
