"Currents Cast," the first piece in the program, transforms the contradictions and releases basic to every modern Graham class into the rhythm of ebb and flow near the ocean's floor.

Satellites of the Pioneer series determined in 1966 that the earth's magnetic tail extends some 395,000,000 miles "down solar wind" of the planet. The Pioneer 10 satellite, which recently passed Jupiter on its way out of the solar system, proved that Jupiter's tail...
