    Thank you Ganges International Film Festival for the honor of recognizing my film, The Story of Hubble, based on the Book Hubble Reveals Creation. It's an inspirational film that shows that the only word in the human language to describe the incomprehensible energy source behind the universe is Supernatural. https://thestoryofhubble.com/the-movie
