Review:  The History Channel has released a fantastic compilation blu-ray set that includes the complete first season of both The Universe and How the Earth was made!

The Universe: The Universe series is one of the best out there.    Here, the History Channel does what they do best, making great and informative documentary television!  I learned SO much about the solar system that I didn't know before. 

The Universe series mixes historical footage and documentation with modern CGI graphics and theory.  Its without a doubt the most in-depth look at space that I've ever seen.  The high-definition graphics just blew me away!

This blu-ray would be ideal for anyone interested in space, but furthermore to homeschoolers and classrooms

How the Earth was Made: The History Channel never disappoints with their television series.   This documentary series is great for anyone interested in the earth's history.  It also works great for your kids, as it will actually keep them interested in the topics.  If you homeschool, this DVD is definately for you!  

This set would make a fantastic holiday gift for anyone on your list!

Interest Range: Science, History Channel, Documentary
