    Product Detail:

    Discover what makes our world so incredible with this spectacular collection featuring three best selling programs at a special price.

    Planet Earth: Pole to Pole, Mountains & Deep Ocean

    More than five years in the making, Planet Earth redefines blue-chip natural history filmmaking and continues the Discovery Channel mission to provide the highest quality programming in the world. Award-winning actress and conservationist Sigourney Weaver narrates this engaging series featuring never-before-seen footage and unprecedented high-definition production techniques. Plus, as a bonus, get a behind-the-scenes look at the making of each incredible episode.

    Pole to Pole
    Follow the sun as it touches the lives of creatures across the planet, bringing a fresh understanding of how the world is interconnected. From African herds migrating hundreds of miles in search of water to desperate animal hunts, Pole to Pole examines how the seasons produce the greatest spectacles on Earth.

    Mountains
    Tour the planet's mightiest mountain ranges and meet the rare animals that inhabit them. From a never-before-seen hunt by snow leopards on the treacherous slopes of the Himalayas to a family of pumas struggling to survive the unstable weather of the Andes, Mountains reveals life on the planet's highest peaks.

    Deep Ocean
    Explore the depths of the planet's oceans and discover some of this mysterious world's most spectacular species. From light shows performed by squids to the blue whale, the largest animal to ever exist, Deep Ocean investigates the waters that cover two thirds of the Earth's surface yet remain largely unknown.

    When We Left Earth: Project Mercury & Project Gemini

    Commemorate NASA's 50th anniversary with the first two episodes of this stunning high-definition series chronicling the inside story of the space agency's epic endeavors.

    The missions, the people, and the triumphs of space exploration are revealed through exclusive interviews with celebrated astronauts and newly-digitized, original mission footage from NASA's secret film vaults.

    Project Mercury: Ordinary Supermen
    NASA and America's first astronauts, the Mercury Seven, are on a journey into the unknown. Six of the men ride into space, each launch taking NASA further forward in their quest to conquer space.

    Project Gemini: Friends and Rivals
    Nine new astronauts arrive at NASA – their mission, to launch two men into space at the same time. See some of the most famous astronauts of all-time come together in Project Gemini – Jim Lovell, Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong.

    Sunrise Earth: America's Greatest Sunrises

    Sunrise: Nature's alarm clock for the land, the sea, and the myriad of creatures who call our planet home. Accompany us on a tranquil hi-definition journey into the landscape itself as we enjoy the sights and the ambient sounds associated with the first light of a new day.

    Sunrise Earth: Greatest Hits East
    As the sun hits the Atlantic seaboard, witness nature's greatest sunrise moments – from the sub-tropical ecosystem of the Everglades to the northern lakes of New England to the sabal palms of the Gulf of Mexico – in nearly a dozen morning ecosystems of the east.

    Sunrise Earth: Greatest Hits West
    While crossing North America, dawn settles on the Great Plains, the Rocky Mountains, and the coastal ranges and beaches of California before departing the western shore. Behold these immaculate sunrise moments in nearly a dozen morning ecosystems from the west.

    You do realize that the set includes the full planet earth set, no?

    This is front page material.

    Edit: nevermind, the Planet Earth in this set does not include all of the regular planet earth box set. This only include: Pole-to-pole; mountains; deep ocean.

    And it's probably the Sigourney Weaver version, not the David Attenborough version. Just buy the UK version of the Planet Earth Blu-Ray from Amazon.co.uk:

    Shipping only takes a week even though it is air-mailed from the UK.

    This is kind of misleading...

    It doesn't contain the all the disc for each set.

    The thread title is indeed misleading, the name of the DVD/Blu-ray set is "Best of Earth, Sky and Space". It's a compilation of the best episodes from the 3 separate series...It isn't actually all 3 full series for $19.95/$24.95 (though that would be an amazing deal if it was!)

    Contains 3 of 5 of Planet Earth
    2 of 4 of Sunrise Earth
    2 of 4 of When We left

    Still a good deal. These are all exceptional movies.

    Not exactly, it has 3 of the 11 episodes of Planet Earth, and 2 of the 6 episodes of When We Left.

    Who is David Attenborough and is his version really better than the other? Too bad no Jeremy Irons.
