Title: What will we find on alien worlds?
Product review: As a product of speculative science it is pretty impressive. Using computer graphics it shows how a mission to explore an alien planet would be conducted by Earth employing a sublight spacecraft delivering sophisticated probes to the surface. The program explains step-by-step the mission as the probes encounter strange life forms, with frequent asides by scientists who explain how such life forms might evolve and live. Using computer animation, the program is very good. If it has a flaw it is in the asides, which frequently go back to something discussed five minutes and a couple of segments ago. In the DVD version the commentary might be edited in as an option, so it is possible to go all the way through the story, which is absorbing in and of itself.
