Where do I start watching the Gundam series?

Question by epsilonsnake: Where do I start watching the Gundam series?

I have heard good things about the Gundam anime but I have no idea where to start. I know that there are multiple "universes"/series (or so I have heard) but I want to know what starts it all. Which series was made first? Please help and thank you for your time.
