(relative to other science work), wide exposure, mostly accurate science and exciting
content give it an edge over more traditional science communication.
Sunshine is an
opportunity to share astrophysics in an engrossing way to a large number of people,
who may not normally learn about it.
How Does It Communicate?
Generally speaking, Sunshine presented science accurately.
The film’s scientific
consultant was Dr.
Brian Cox, a physicist and research fellow who works at CERN.
Cox
has extensive experience communicating science through BBC documentaries and
study resources, which is noticeable in his commentary of the film.
I believe his
commentary to be a better piece of science communication relative to the original film
dialogue, as he corrects scientific errors and explains the theory behind many events as
they unfold.
He does this in an accessible and easy to understand manner, not using
any complex physical terminology.
