Uploaded this today along with the Avon discs. After uploading, I did a little research and it turns out the community college district that produced the TV show "Project Universe" where most of the footage was taken has already had that actual show pulled off YouTube, so I was intentionally vague in my description. Hopefully that'll keep it safe, but you may want to check this out sooner rather than later. I played it straight-through on an SGT-250 player. Read my description for explanation of how they handled the audio, and why most of it just comes out of the left channel here.

Thank you for sharing this disc on You Tube. I never thought I would ever see it, and I am still not expecting to ever own the CED. I just watched some of it on You Tube. One of the schools I attended had an old earth science Laserdisc from 1987 sort of similar to this disc, and a Pioneer Laserdisc player, which was used in class. It is also nice to watch this video while it is still available.

There was a LOT of this sort of stuff on laserdisc- one of my friends bought out a school district's entire stock of laserdiscs a few years ago and he let me have a few of them. Something I posted here a few years ago is that the laserdisc covers used by Learning Corporation of America actually all have a photo of a CED out of its caddy on the front! Someone observant enough might even be able to figure out what title it is, just by its length- if I had the patience to compare all my CEDs to it I might be able to figure it out!

A few days ago, I read the old featured CED article about this title from Winter 1998, so I wanted to learn more about it. There seems to be very little information about it online, but I found this posting in my search. Unfortunately, the link to the video now just goes to a black graphic with a message saying that the video is unavailable, so I was disappointed. Whatever happened to the video, and how long has it been missing? Was it taken down because of a legal issue? I'm confused.

I bought the caddy for the disc a few years ago. It was sold as just the caddy,no disc so that wasn't unexpected surprise. About that same time I bought death race 2000 but that didn't have the disc inside it. I got my money back on that one. I think it said tested good. That's the pleasure of buying discs from ebay.

it was likely taken down due to a copyright violation
