Anybody else watch this? It was a very well thought-out simulation of a trip to a nearby planet. Exploration was by balloon-like robot probes - no people on this trip. Both the graphics and the imaginary creatures were excellent.

They even had the Stephen Hawking guy from the Simpsons give commentary.

Ouch Stephen Hawking from the Simpsons....

I have caught parts of it, seems kinda cool if far fetched at times.

We bought the DVD for the kids and they love it.

We also like the "Future is Wild" DVD about an alternate future of evolution on Earth if all humans disappeared.
