I highly recommend "Deep Sky."

I was fortunate to watch it on Vision Pro in IMAX and it was spectacular.
On the giant screen the Horsehead Nebula was mindblowing.
I took my daughter to a local theatre to meet some friends. I was nervous and definitely maintaining awareness. That didn't happen again.
I recently went to see the Deep Sky documentary with my family at the Omnimax Theatre. Much better experience. There were people crying, the JWST images were so overwhelming.
