Description and/or Review: 

MEMBER REVIEW: This is a compilation of Discovery Programs. Inside Planet Earth looks at the inner earth: crust, mantle and core. Lots of good CGI. What Lies Below chronicles three scientists going into caves in Iceland; one in a lava tube, the rift between North America and Eurasia, and a cave in the ice beneath a glacier. The Sun is a bit apocalyptic about solar mega flares, but you see the layers of the sun and bunch of other nifty stuff. Fearless Planet, Earth Story chronicles the series of cataclysms that makes earth the place we know and love. From Thea to super deserts to Chuxulub and plate tectonics it is constant destructive stuff. Sunrise Earth, Edge of the Atlantic is a series of shots of Cape Cod at sunrise, no narration, just waves on the sand. If We Had No Moon has Orpheus hitting earth to create our moon. It is old but still interesting. Faces of Earth, Building the Planet is an overview of the history of Earth with newer scientific methods when it was made. Generally, I would recommend Disk One, and pass by Disk Two. Description: Disc One: Inside Planet Earth; What Lies Below; The Sun; Fearless Planet Earth Story.
