"Aerial America" was the first show in the franchise, focusing on, you guessed it, America. The show ran for a staggering 10 years and 71 episodes, visiting some of the most beautiful parts of the country.
From Utah's Bonneville Salt Flats to the stunning wilderness of Alaska, and the Great Lakes to the Grand Canyon, all seen from on high and with expert narration giving you the history and science behind these incredible places.
Following the success of "Aerial America", there have also been a bunch of spin-off shows that tour other countries and regions, including Africa, Argentina, Greece, and Italy. You can even see my own native Britain in all its glory.
Of course, if you want to whet your appetite for pictures of Earth from space, we have you covered — check out this incredible image of a bright plume of swirling marine mud, whipped up off the coast of Florida following a blast of cold air from the Arctic.
It's worth noting that both the Essential and Premium tiers cost $2.99 during the deal period. This means that even if you only want Paramount Essential in the long term, you might as well snag the Premium version for the first two months. You can enjoy all the benefits of being a Premium subscriber, and then downgrade to Essential once the two months are up.
