Earlier this month, astronaut Scott Kelly returned to Earth after a record-breaking 340 days in space. Lexus and Time magazine’s insightful documentary series commemorates Kelly’s astounding feat of physical and psychological resilience and follows the astronaut’s incredible journey, from the initial launch to his safe return.

As traditional forms of online advertising become less effective, due in part to the rise of ad blockers, banner blindness and spam bots, brands are increasingly investing in quality native advertising. In 2015, Netflix promoted the launch of crime series Narcos by commissioning Cocainenomics, an in-depth article on the history of the Medellín cartel, in collaboration with The Wall Street Journal.
