great!
I like these episods a lot. I just wish that they would hurry up and finish the blackout episodes. they explain a lot and I can't wait any longer to see the rest, but besides that its great anyway!
Love the Black Out Series
The video taken from the satellites, especially SOHO, is just incredible. Watching the "weather" of the sun brings the center of our universe to life. Here is a link to more pictures and live feeds about what the sun is doing: http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/ there is also a link to get a free screensaver just look for the "Free Stuff" link at the bottom. How do I know all this? My husband works on the SOHO mission. But the series and the information directly from the spacecraft is amazing.
