Bill Nye, the famous science guy, is feeling down. He's visiting his therapist - Dr. Arnold Schwarzenegger - wondering why he just doesn't feel like himself. He feels as if a horrible weight is on his shoulders, and life seems so empty, so meaningless. The therapist listens sympathetically, and diagnoses the cause: Bill is suffering from grief. Climate change grief.

Bill Nye is a man on a mission: to stop the spread of anti-scientific thinking across the world. The former star of the popular kids show Bill Nye, the Science Guy is now the CEO of the Planetary Society-an organization founded by his mentor, Carl Sagan-where he's launching a solar-propelled spacecraft into the cosmos and advocating for the importance of science, research, and discovery in public life. With intimate and exclusive access-as well as plenty of wonder and whimsy-this behind-the-scenes portrait of Nye follows him as he takes off his Science Guy lab coat and takes on those who deny climate change, evolution, and a science-based world view. The film features Bill Nye, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Ann Druyan, and many others.

Inside the faith-fueled showdown that turned into a digital age spectacle.
