"Blue Planet" reveals the Earth to us as only few people have ever seen it: from space. Orbiting 200 miles above Earth's surface, we can see familiar landforms: the majestic Himalayas, giant Namib desert sand dunes, jewel-like Caribbean islands. From this unique vantage point we see how natural forces - volcanoes, earthquakes and hurricanes - affect our planet, and how a powerful new force, humankind, has begun to alter the face of the Earth. From Amazon rain forests to Serengeti grasslands, "Blue Planet" inspires a new appreciation of life on Earth, our only home. (42 minutes, 1990)
