Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com
This soothing, well-produced DVD is the next best thing to riding piggyback on a satellite. Over 150 orbital images from NASA are sequenced to provide a comprehensive tour of Earth's magnificent features, from continental contours and island systems to spectacular atmospheric and oceanographic conditions. Accompanied by 15 songs by Celtic harpist Lisa Lynne, these high-resolution images float across the screen to form an epic collage of our planet's delicate beauty. While signs of civilization are occasionally evident, the emphasis is placed on Earth's natural formations, from shifting dunes and wave patterns to the stark relief of the Himalayas. Lynne's music tends to have a soporific effect (probably intentional), but as a calming mood-setter this DVD is highly recommended. Curious viewers will especially appreciate the detailed scientific information that accompanies each image on separate menu screens. For those who may never fly in the space shuttle, this high-altitude journey is a definite treat. --Jeff Shannon

OK DVD, Boring, a review from a space lover April 13, 2006
Buy one of the Imax space dvd's , you'll be better off. This one is boring.
Unfortunately once you open the box, nobody lets you return it.
So you are stuck with it.
Spend your money on something else.

This is one of the best planet dvds I've seen in a long time. Beautiful graphics and wonderful soundtrack. Lots of information too.

A little dull April 25, 2003
4 out of 6 found this review helpful

I sat down to watch this, and within just the first couple minutes I knew I'd be bored. I guess I was expecting more of a wide shot of earth, but the camera is zoomed in close on almost every shot and makes it difficult to even tell what you are looking at at times. And because it's so close, they do this annoying pan with every shot so you can see the whole thing, and that got me a little dizzy. And it just wasn't smooth, because it cuts to a new video about every 7 seconds. It's not something you can just sit and watch, but I guess if you have it on at a party or something, it's ok, as long as it's for your grandparents or something. I have to say the music is pretty good and goes with what you are watching, but as with all dvds of this type, you can play your own soundtrack. I noticed that this is the first dvd in a series, so maybe they've done a better job on the newer ones.
