"SYMBOLS OF AN ALIEN SKY" -- THE REVIEWS POUR IN
"I will say that I really enjoyed the video -- very impressive. I watched it with my fiancée and she found it astounding and extremely impressive in its research (as did I). Honestly, I am not sure exactly what to think, but the theory and ideas, including the plasma physics connections, are certainly thought provoking! I am eager to see the next episodes in the series."

"If the academic community is really interested in making science -- and even history and ancient art -- interesting to students, they will stop using assumptions proven untenable by space probe data and will consider the ideas presented by Talbott et al in 'Symbols of an Alien Sky'."
C. J. Ransom, Ph.D. Plasma Physics

"Technically, this combined overview of "Symbols of an Alien Sky" in Episode I is excellent. The use of the so-called Ken Burns' Effect was also quite superb. My compliments."

"Talbott's material on the evolution of a 'polar configuration' raises as many questions as it answers, but the tenor of his presentation is such that it causes in the audience a simmering desire to know more. Bravo! Talbott's achievement in this initial DVD is what is known in the popular culture as a 'teaching moment'. This really is that, and I cannot wait for the consequences, within and without academia."

"Amazing!!!
"I confess to knowing too little about mythology. Yes; I know a number of rather disjointed facts but little in a continuous picture. I suppose it's something that hasn't really grabbed my attention before this. However, this film held me fascinated and enthralled. So much so that I want to learn more. I feel viewing this - and presumably the future two instalments - a genuine MUST. It raises so many important basic questions; questions undergraduates should be asking."
