Fans dive deep into the scientific reasoning behind the creation of Calvin and learn why it inspires wonder and fear in “Creating Life: The Art and Reality of Calvin.” In “Life: In Zero G,” the cast and crew dive into the challenges of filming an entire film mimicking zero gravity. Finally, in “Astronaut Diaries,” Rory Adams, Miranda North, and Hugh Derry reveal their innermost feelings about their mission and life in video diaries pulled directly from the Station.
LIFE was produced by David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, Bonnie Curtis, and Julie Lynn with Don Granger and Vicki Dee Rock serving as executive producers. The film has a run time of approximately 102 minutes and has an R rating for language throughout, some sci-fi violence, and terror.
