Blast! plot

Mark Devlin leads the scientific investigation of a team of scientists who want to find out how the stars came to be. A revolutionary new telescope is sent into space with a balloon specially developed by NASA to collect information. The scientific team has worked diligently on the telescope for five years. The instrument must collect light from the most distant stars. The aim is to map the evolution of the universe with this data. The fact that they have no money to pay for a satellite does not deter these enthusiastic scientists. Without hesitation, they attach the telescope, which they have developed with so much effort, to a special balloon developed by NASA. People are betting on getting the right research data in this way. Their scientific adventure takes the researchers from one Arctic Circle to another. Highs and losses alternate. About the crazy lives of scientists, their professional obsessions and the personal and family sacrifices.
