SPHERES is a three-part VR series in the media and video category, also filed under travel and exploration, developed by Novelab and published by CityLights VR.

What you can do
Eliza McNitt directs, with Darren Aronofsky and Ari Handel as executive producers. Each chapter has its own narrator:
- Chapter I: Chorus of the Cosmos (13 minutes, narrated by Millie Bobby Brown) treats the solar system as a musical instrument, starting with the sound of Earth.
- Chapter II: Songs of Spacetime (12 minutes, narrated by Jessica Chastain) takes you into a black hole and covers the discovery of gravitational waves.
- Chapter III: Pale Blue Dot (13 minutes, narrated by Patti Smith) travels from the edge of the universe back to the silent Big Bang and the sound that came after it.
All three chapters together run about 38 minutes.
