They did a good job on showing the obstacles standing in the way of an extra-galaxy migration to a new home planet, including the Russian study done decades ago. It looks like we're not going to make it all the way anywhere because enough people will go insane to hobble the mission, if not destroy the ship(s) entirely.
Frankly I am surprised that Herzog showed that fake Brazilian "Aliens of the Valley" and their "shake it while you fake it" followers.
Herzog actually narrated this:
"The Aliens of the Valley are stuck on Earth. In the course of millennia their bodies have adapted to our environment, so there is no way back to their home planet. Watching them draw energy from outer space, we were mystified by the experience which seemed at times as perplexing as gazing at a faraway galaxy."
And then there were the Hawaiian male dancers doing their little tushy dance as an homage to the virgin land we supposedly spoiled when we built a massive telescope there to help us on our way to the future, because, hey, THAT is WAY more important than saving the Human Race, isn't it?
That last twenty minutes of BS could have been better used.
