The documentaries are interesting. However, the quality is horrible. The video is grainy and compressed even on the newer documentaries. The colors are faded. The audio sounds like it was played from a Vinyl LP. This is everything you would expect from a Madacy boxed set.

Very nicely presented gift set 0f 5 DVD's in a cool looking tin. A real thrill for all you space junkies out there, and I am one too!! Well organized discs, lots of menu options, and I like the little quiz at the end of each disc, to see if you've been paying attention!! Overall well worth the small $, even if you are ultimately very familiar with the subject matter and film clips. Have not seen the Ultimate NASA DVD's yet, but they have an extra couple of hours viewing, and we space junkies can always use more!
