This is part 3 of a 13 part episode. To watch the full show go to my channel (Zuke05) then go to my Playlist, find the show then click Play All - When his spaceship crash-lands on Mars, astronaut Kit Draper (Paul Mantee) must figure out how to survive on the barren, lifeless planet with only a monkey to keep him company in this 1964 sci-fi take on Daniel Defoe's classic novel. As Draper searches for food, water and oxygen, he eventually discovers that the dead planet may actually harbor life -- but it's not clear whether the Martians are friends or foes.

how is there so little oxygen to breath, but enough oxygen for the fire to burn?

Superb, and thanks for taking the time and trouble to post this.

@bxxder2008 have you considered counseling?

it is about as possible to store enough oxygen in a rock to burn it, as it is for you to get a date with someone other than your sister.

Why did they have to leave the main ship if the main ship is able to orbit still?

[eotto2001]

@Commonsense11111 The rocks have oxygen in them.

[Nightrelic]

Mac probably does have these problems licked, because he probably brought his utility belt.

at 0:50 check out what happens as he says "get by for about 15 days" - pay attention to "15" :))

@Commonsense11111 - The rocks produce oxygen as they burn, so they're self-sustaining........ as the story goes. Looks like things on Mars function differently than on earth...... ;-)
