This Planet: Evaluation Of Planet Earth

By John Dilworth

Discover a place where a day lasts a year, diamonds fall as hail, and a mountain twice as tall as Everest stands.

Every one of these is featured in The Planets, plus more besides.

The Sun's gravity enslaves a wide variety of celestial bodies, including eight planets and their many moons, as well as dwarf planets, asteroids, and comets. In The Planets, your eyes are treated to a breathtaking journey. Visit rocky planets like Mercury, which the Sun has scorched to a crisp, and learn about the solar system's fiery origins. Next, check out Venus's sulphurous cloud and travel to the outer reaches to see planets like Jupiter, which is 120 times the size of Earth.

Featuring stunning 3-D models and photographs from NASA and the European Space Agency, The Planets introduces viewers to every planet in our solar system and the extraordinary space exploration programmes underway.
