Beyond Planet Earth
© 1994 The Discovery Channel
This is a simple but informative program about the solar system. The still photography from NASA together with interesting videos offer valuable insight into the workings of the solar system. Topics like the formation of the planets, the fate of the dinosaurs, the future of space travel and life beyond Earth are covered in a straightforward, but interesting fashion. While you won't find fancy graphics or design features, this older program provides a good introduction to the solar system.
