THE DOROTHY PROJECT
ART & SCIENCE AT THE EDGE OF
SPACE AND BEYOND
We are a team of artists, engineers, and filmmakers capturing Earth in 360° from above, and using science-based immersive storytelling to study how the overview effect can reshape human consciousness.
See Earth as a pale blue dot
Our hydrogen balloons carry experiments and 360° cameras into the stratosphere to study Earth’s interconnected systems. Each stratospheric campaign is structured as a distinct mission, inspired by the logic of space exploration.
PAST SUCCESSFUL MISSIONS
Explore our stratospheric missions and meet the crew behind them.
