So, it's finally happened. The Search for Earth Proxima has officially been released! You can see it here, along with an interview with Josh and Brett, on Scientific American.

Since astronomers first discovered exoplanets in 1995, we've come to learn that there are a staggering amount of planets out there in the universe. But, we have yet to find one that's habitable, aside from our own. The Search for Earth Proxima is a short documentary about a group of scientists and their mission to build a telescope to hunt for an Earth-like planet around our closest neighbor: Alpha Centauri.

As seen on National Geographic, Scientific American, The Atlantic, Wired, Vice, The Verge, Astronomy Magazine, and Vimeo Staff Picks.
