'''Visuals:''' On a {{color|steelblue|shady blue}} background, there is a tall upside-down "{{color|blue|'''L'''}}" unfold, then a shorter upside-down "{{color|blue|'''L'''}}" unfolds, and finally a trapezoid unfolds. The final result of this resembles a stylized lowercase "{{color|blue|'''A'''}}". A shadow of the "{{color|blue|'''A'''}}" is seen on the base. Then a star forms the text "'''The Annenberg/CPB Project'''". After the star forms the text, the shadow disappears.
'''Visuals:''' On a {{color|steelblue|shady blue}}-black background, a tall bracket-like bar folds up from the ground, followed by a shorter one and then a trapezoid, all colored {{color|blue}} and casting a long shadow across the ground. The final result of this resembles a stylized lowercase "{{color|blue|'''a'''}}". Then, a star wipes in the text "{{font|Optima|'''The Annenberg/CPB Project'''}}", in the Optima font, from left-to-right, and then the shadow disappears.


'''Variants:'''
'''Variants:'''
*On <u>a videotape syndication print of ''Planet Earth''</u>, we simply see white text saying "Annenberg/CPB Project" above the Earth.

*One version of the 1999 variant has <u>just the text "Annenberg Foundation" and no "Corporation for Public Broadcasting"</u> under the Annenberg/CPB text.
**A version exists where the byline just reads "{{Font|arial|Annenberg Foundation}}"
*A special variant, using the {{color|blue}} background would have the text saying <u>"The Annenberg/CPB Math and Science Project"</u>. The "A" logo is {{color|green}}.
*A version exists where the entire logo is remade with CGI, with a {{color|Darkgreen|dark green}} "{{color|darkgreen|'''a'''}}" and the text reading "{{font|Optima|'''The Annenberg/CPB Math and Science Project'''}}" instead.

'''Technique:''' Computer animation.


'''Audio:''' 3 synth notes with a "wah" effect as the "a" unfolds, then 8 higher synth notes as the star reveals the text, with the 8th note longer.
