Description:
A cosmic harbinger streaks into our solar system, disrupting the very fabric of life on Earth in H.G. Wells’ haunting tale The Star. First dismissed by scientists and the public alike, a mysterious celestial body appears in the night sky and begins a relentless approach. As it grows brighter and nearer, awe gives way to terror. Natural disasters erupt. Seas rise. Cities fall. And humanity faces its own insignificance beneath the cold blaze of this alien sun. Narrated with gripping intensity by Michael Lyons, this apocalyptic masterpiece explores mankind’s fragility, scientific hubris, and the indifferent vastness of the cosmos. A timeless meditation on catastrophe, The Star is as chilling today as it was over a century ago. Duration - 28m. Author - H.G. Wells. Narrator - Michael Lyons.
