a spiritual take on this magnificent odyssey

Rating: Null/10 (22 March 2003)

The great monolith turns up at some of the world changing events like the primeval monkees discover using weapons to kill and are on their way to becoming human. A grand event on the evolution time scale.
The monolith then turns up on the moon possibly millions of years later when man has advanced enough for space travel. This also emplies the infinite patience of a greater spirit. The sun hits the monolith and shoots a radio beam to Jupiter. They go to Jupiter and encounter some things beyond the comprehension of mere man. More monoliths, time bending, the embryonic baby floating in space. It all suggests higher power and higher intelligence.
