Dear [[First_Name]],
Thanks to your support, tpt is among the nation's leaders in creating local and national programs. This month, you'll see two tpt-produced national documentaries: NOVA: Hunting the Edge of Space, which explores how the telescope has helped us discover our place in the universe and Through a Dog's Eyes, which chronicles service dogs and the remarkable difference they make in people's lives. And coming soon, you'll see our brand new weekly series, MN Original, which celebrates our State's artistic community. We are proud to create such diverse programming, and you can be proud that it was made right here, by your public television station. Thank you!
