Hey...first time in my 50 years of living and watching and collecting vintage atomic age sci fi, this is the first time I ever watched this movie or ever known it even to exist! Thanks for sharing this!
...small wounder the galaxy crys out for know more homo sapien edutainment,
~if this is what they were watching on Alair when Archie Bunker went back to being star dust !
=also explains why were so hell bent on Mutually Assured Destruction to stop the transmission of such torturous epic sagas as the early sci-fi, ban cruel weapons of mass destruction under the Galactic Federation Treaty of 1964 when they install a fleet of common peace officer eggs, of which most have hatch and let down hair !
Although this movie is quite cheesy, it is quite imaginative. I love the retro look and the feel good atmosphere it had. People back in the 50s and 60s had an optimistic view of the future, which has been lost in today’s movies. I love old sci-fi!!!
Well the Russians were the first ones to land a space probe on Venus---lasted from 1/2 to 45 mins then ceased operation---Venus atmosphere is ~100X the pressure at Sealevel on Earth. Atmosphere is 50% Carbon Dixoide and 50% Sulfuric Acid. At the time of the writing of this movie we already knew that it is impossible to send humans to land on Venus. Note also the temp of Venus (known then as well) ~900F day/night--
@nicksynnz Back in the day every kid wanted to be an astronaut, including myself. Today people have lost interest in space exploration due to the pessimistic view of the future. These movies reminded us of a time when everything was possible.
I first saw this movie when I was 7 years old back in 1960 at the York Theatre in Elmhurst Illinois. It looks alot different now, than it did back then. But its still very cool...
click like if google "Stanislaw Lem" brought you here!

"The Worlds largest computer"...with the output of half of a Commodore 64.
That Russian mathematician was in his early twenties when they finished loading all the punch-cards and he started his work!
