Plots(1)
From a space wheel 500 miles above the Earth, commander Samuel Merritt (Walter Brooke) and his men (including Eric Fleming and Benson Fong) construct a sleek rocket, then receive orders providing their new craft’s destination: Mars! George Pal produced this adventure rooted in the ’50s understanding of space exploration... and heightened by the awareness that no matter how advanced science becomes, human weaknesses remain.
