Synopsis

EXTRATERRESTRIALS (EPISODE 13) CMP 254 - (1988) - 28 1/2 Minutes - This program explores imagination as it relates to the progress of man. Some examples are Jules Vern's science fiction novel, "From Earth To The Moon", and H. G. Welles novel, "War of the Worlds". Orson Welles reads some parts from the novel, "War of the Worlds" that he used as a famous radio presentation. A segment about Copernicus and other men, some of whose imaginative ideas came true and changed concepts of the universe, is also presented. Finally, clips from a symposium of leading scientists are shown. Some of their ideas may also become reality.
