"An accessible visual narrative for the primary energy source of life from the fulldome show Birth of Planet Earth"
(Accompanying paper: https://sc19.supercomputing.org/proce...)
Conversion of sunlight into chemical energy, namely photosynthesis, is the primary energy source of life on Earth. An explanatory visualization depicting this process is presented in the form of an excerpt from the fulldome show Birth of Planet Earth. This accessible visual narrative shows a lay audience, including children, how the energy of sunlight is captured, converted, and stored through a chain of proteins to power living cells.
