Ask a ScienceBlogger inquires:
What's the best science TV show of all time?...
I think that is pretty obvious. The answer is obviously my favorite science show from when I was a kid: 3-2-1 Contact
Not only did it have the best do-it-yourself science for young people, but it had a great 80s science montage as opening music. I can still to this day sing this song from memory.
<singing>"Contact is the secret, is the moment, when everything happens. Contact..."</singing>
A video of the opening music is below the fold:
More like this
Behold her, single in the field,
Yon solitary Highland Lass!
Reaping and singing by herself;
Stop here, or gently pass!
Alone she cuts and binds the grain,
And sings a melancholy strain;
O listen! for the Vale profound
Is overflowing with the sound.
