COMET HALLEY: ONCE IN A LIFETIME! Video order #FV-1159V…..$49.95

"...Conveys man's delight and fantasy with the heavens...this topic may appear temporal
...but the set's timeliness depends more on the attitude of the teacher than on the set itself." The
Book Report.

Particularly relevant because of the recent appearance of Hale-Bopp, this pro-
gram presents the reactions to comets in ancient, historic and relatively modern times,
press coverage of the 191O Halley return, superstitions and beliefs, current scientific
knowledge and research, and much more. In much of history, comets were dreaded as
omens of disasters, but today we realize that comets can provide us with vital information
about the origin of the solar system, and the origin of life. Analysis of the data collected
will continue for years. 3 parts, 56 page guide. (Filmstrips order #FS-1159F.......$25.00.)

1986 SILVER ANVIL AWARD—PUBLIC RELATIONS SOCIETY OF AMERICA

REVIEWS: "This is an excellent filmstrip...historical changes in scientific understanding
of comets are presented with-out belittling outdated concepts. The social aspects...such as
superstition, fear, hucksterism, and celebration, are shown to have deep historical roots and a
dogged persistence even in modern times. The images alone--comets and celestial phenomena,
portraits of scientists, facsimiles of books and records of observation--make this a set worth
having. The program comes with a curriculum guide containing finder charts, suggested read-ings,
additional sources...script, and suggested activities.... Highly recommended." Science Books
and Films.
