TED Ed: Why is the Milky Way a Spiral?

2024 · 5 min Animation

Thirteen billion years ago, the gas and dust particles that eventually became our Milky Way were whizzing around in every direction.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

TED Ed: Why is the Milky Way a Spiral? is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

Released in 2024, this film holds up just as well today. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
