ON JUPITER 1995 version
This Pioneer Productions documentary first aired on December 3, 1995 and was made to promote the Galileo mission to Jupiter, which deployed a probe into the gas giant's atmosphere four days later. This TV version of the documentary is the subject matter of Part Two of my latest Aulis article (linked below). I don't normally upload videos I didn't produce or own. But unfortunately the only other online version that I could find was missing half the audio, so I've uploaded my own personal VHS recording.
As stated in my article: this is a very engaging, entertaining, and well-produced documentary; but it is however very liberal in its use of analogue visual aids for the Jovian atmosphere and the Galilean moons. On the former, the narrator's script curiously mixes the tenses. Whilst showing this analogue footage of clouds to illustrate the interviewee's descriptions of Jupiter's atmosphere, the narrator talks past tense as if the probe had already entered the atmosphere! Unless viewers who saw this as a repeat checked the original air date or checked the credits for 'timelapse photography', they could likely have come away mistakenly thinking Jupiter's atmosphere was a lot like ours.
Narrating that segment past tense was a pretty ballsy move on Pioneer Productions' part! What if something had gone wrong and the Galileo probe burned up or skipped off the atmosphere? Their segment beginning around 48:00 certainly wouldn't have aged well!
To their credits, when they released this program on DVD in 2006, it was reedited with actual Galileo flight photos of the Galilean moons juxtaposed over the top of their visual aids. And despite retaining the cloud videos, the atmospheric entry segment was changed entirely to reflect what the Galileo entry probe actually detected - which was very different to NASA's expectations.
