Dear discuss-lfm members,
Thought I would share a newly discovered videotape resource that
will nicely supplement your Live From Mars classroom activities.
The Finley-Holiday Films folks have just released a 30 minute
(Hi-Fi Stereo) video called *Life on Mars* (c1996) which I have
had the opportunity to view. It is based on NASA's historic
announcement (remember the Press Conference in early August?)
and contains the latest computer animation and 3D images of Mars.
The details of the Mars meteorite findings, past present and future
Mars missions, and a historical look at Mars are included.
I have to admit that I was truly impressed, especially with the
information about the Mars Missions, the animation footage of
Mars Pathfinder, Global Surveyor and other missions to Mars.
For $14.95 I would call this one a real bargain. I hesitate to
endorse any resource I haven't seen. Gladly, I can say this is
one that I can recommend!
Their toll free number is 1-800-345-6707 or check their web site

Have a great Thanksgiving holiday!
