HOPE-65



A chimpanzee is sent on a deep space mission to find a habitable planet for earthlings to colonize. The astronaut and the mission are both named HOPE-65, from a long line of chimps specially trained for this kind of task, in which we can assume there is no going home, no matter what she finds. We don't know how the previous missions went, but this one found a planet, with oxygen, water, and life! The real question is- is this really a suitable planet for colonization by humans? 

HOPE-65 is a 2026 senior film project from the French art school Brassart-Grenoble, specifically the students in the 3D animation and video effects department. You can read more about the film at Kuriositas. (via Nag on the Lake

Seeing what we have done here, that chimp made the right decision.
