Discovery Launches Virtual Reality Online Network

Launch content includes Edge of the Earth, an experience that brings viewers alongside a weather balloon, propelling them 114,000 feet above Earth and breaking through a rain cloud that is audibly sleeting before emerging into the upper atmosphere.

Additional experiences now available are Rhinos on the Move, which follows Nepalese rhinos; Surf School With Kyle Thiermann, a tutorial with the pro surfer; Inside the Arctic Doomsday Seed Vault, set on the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard; and Hearing Color, which features violinist Kaitlyn Hova and what she experiences with synesthesia, a neurological condition of "joined senses."
