The images shown along with the music really create the Blu-Ray Hi-def experience. A must have for any Blu-Ray player!

Even to this aerial view and space buff and classical music enthusiast, this product with its minimal and repeated ad nauseum video loop is, I am sorry to say, a total waste of your money. A big zero ripoff.

After doing a bit of research, I learned that this footage was filmed during the Endeavour voyage. The imagery is excellent and very clear. Especially considering it was shot from space! I really enjoyed the variety of classical soundtracks to choose from – almost eight hours of music. This is a great disc to play all day long.

I purchased this video expecting stunning views from space, and I got that. But it was not “one hour” as advertized, rather it was a 3:45 launch sequence followed by 14:53 of original footage from space, followed by three repeats of about 14:30 each from the space view footage. Despite the claim in another user review, this repetition has nothing to do with consecutive orbits, it is merely re-use of the same footage. Even the most casual observer can notice the repetition of such distinctive scenes as a zoom-in on Mt Fuji, or the dumping of the urine holding tank. I would have given this disc a five-star rating if it had the promised hour of original video. As it is, the crystal-clear views from space and the 8 hours of great 5.1 surround music warrant a four-star rating. As a relatively new Amazon customer, I have found by experience that it pays to check out the customer reviews, as they will tell you things the promotional information will not.

One must buy this for the music. The video is only 15-20 minutes and repeated several times in each music part. I expected all different video for each music part.
