Embark on a breathtaking journey when “Deep Sky” opens in IMAX at the AutoNation® IMAX® 3D Theater at the Museum of Discovery and Science (MODS) on Friday, October 20. The highly anticipated documentary brings the awe-inspiring images captured by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to IMAX® - taking audiences on a journey to the beginning of time and space, to never-before-seen cosmic landscapes and to recently discovered exoplanets around other stars. Directed by Oscar®-nominated filmmaker Nathaniel Kahn and narrated by Oscar-nominated actress Michelle Williams, “Deep Sky” follows the high-stakes global mission to build JWST and to launch it into orbit one-million miles from Earth. JWST’s mission was to answer questions that have haunted us since the beginning of time: Where did we come from? How did the universe begin? Are we alone? “Deep Sky” reveals the universe as we have never seen it before; immersing audiences in the stunning pictures beamed back to earth by NASA’s new telescope - and capturing its vast beauty at a scale that can only be experienced on the giant IMAX screen. “Deep Sky” goes behind the scenes of JWST, capturing its launch and the release of the mind-blowing first full-color images seen by billions around the world. The film is a thrilling story that begins during the telescope’s construction, following it to the harrowing launch stage and through the release of the first full-color images to the public on July 12, 2022. “Deep Sky” is written, produced and directed by Nathaniel Kahn, produced by Bonnie Hlinomaz and executive produced by John Turner, Matt Mountain, Sandra Evers-Manly and Gerry Ohrstrom. The film was financed in part by a grant from the Northrop Grumman Foundation and is co-financed by IMAX. IMAX and the filmmakers are grateful to NASA, ESA, CSA, the Space Telescope Science Institute and AURA for their assistance in making this film. The AutoNation® IMAX® 3D Theater at the Museum of Discovery and Science is located at 401 SW 2nd Street in Fort Lauderdale. “Deep Sky” is included in the MODS Discovery Pass, an all-in-one ticket that includes Museum exhibitions, live science demonstrations and one IMAX documentary film. “Deep Sky” has a run time of 40 minutes.

Through the Love Promise and Subaru Loves Pet initiative, participating Subaru retailers partner with a local animal organization in its community and host adoption events across the country to help local shelter pets find loving homes. In 2022, Subaru and its retailers helped over 47,000 animals get adopted last October. Craig Zinn Automotive Group and Subaru of Pembroke Pines proudly support the Humane Society of Broward County in its quest to help find loving homes for pets. The Humane Society of Broward County is committed to supporting the lives of animals by providing adoptions, community services and education and serves as a hometown charity for the Subaru Share the Love campaign.
