The Space Collection [5 Discs]

MOVIE DESCRIPTION:

The IMAX format provides an excellent opportunity to film sweeping vistas. Few views are as awe-inspiring as the vastness of outer space. This box set collects five IMAX films that attempt to give the viewer a glimpse of our universe. The films in this set are Blue Planet, Destiny in Space, The Dream Is Alive, Hail Columbia!, and Mission to Mir. Each of these films are presented in a standard full-frame transfer that does as good a job as possible of approximating the huge IMAX screen. English and French soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1. NASA enthusiasts and IMAX aficionados will greatly enjoy this package from PBS Home Video. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi
