00:00:00The End
00:00:30THE END
00:01:00In 1985, during the course of the work undertaken to irrigate the Kobe Desert, a strange fragment of rock was discovered.
00:01:21Several remarkable features of this rock attracted the attention of the scientists engaged on the project.
00:01:27Research revealed that it contained a spool.
00:01:31Further analysis showed the material to be extraterrestrial in origin and not of human manufacture.
00:01:39Where did it come from?
00:01:40Then somebody remembered that in June 1908 in Siberia, an explosion had occurred equivalent in force to a hydrogen bomb, an explosion visible within a radius of 350 miles.
00:01:57At the time, it was thought to have been caused by a giant meteor.
00:02:0277 years later, an international expedition tried to determine the trajectory and the point of impact and to find some debris of what was called the Tongue Meteor.
00:02:12Shortly afterwards, under the auspices of the World Federation for Space Research, scientists meet to celebrate the anniversary of the establishment of the first space station on the moon.
00:02:24Professor Herringway from the United States makes a public statement about the famous meteor.
00:02:29Our calculations indicate, confirmed also by the results recently transmitted to us by our colleagues on Luna 3, that the mysterious Tongue Meteor was really a spaceship from another planet, which exploded in the air before landing.
00:02:49This hypothesis stimulated scientific thought throughout the world.
00:02:55Reporters of every nation are waiting to hear what the nuclear physicist Professor Orloff has to say.
00:03:05Professor Orloff, is this another hoax of the flying saucer variety?
00:03:09And what about this spool that was found in the desert some 350 miles from the crater of the explosion?
00:03:13How do you explain that, Professor Orloff?
00:03:15Well, I believe there was a grave emergency.
00:03:17When the rockets normally used for deceleration refused to function, the captain of the spaceship decided to say what he considered was most valuable.
00:03:26I'm referring naturally to this spool, which may contain a document of prime importance in an unknown language, recorded apparently by a magnetic process.
00:03:36An international committee of expert linguists was offered access to the world's largest computer to try to decipher this strange language.
00:03:47This is Dr. Chen Yu.
00:03:50Not only is he one of the world's leading authorities on languages, but also his biological work is of immense importance.
00:04:02Humanity is in debt to him for the technique of transforming inorganic substances into foodstuffs.
00:04:07He directs the committee with world-famous mathematician Professor Sikarna, whose work rivals even that of Einstein.
00:04:16In the astrophysical domain, we've made rapid progress.
00:04:20And although we haven't deciphered the mysterious message, we have determined the ship's launching base.
00:04:26At the moment, there can be no doubt.
00:04:28This spaceship was launched within our solar system.
00:04:32I can even say that it was definitely launched from within the path of our planet.
00:04:36Now, since there can be no life on Mercury, there is only one other planet that it could have come from.
00:04:43I am referring to the Earth's sister planet, Venus, the morning star.
00:04:59Listen.
00:05:00The elements existing on Earth.
00:05:23That's right.
00:05:24It certainly is a chemico-physical analysis of the atmosphere.
00:05:28What we have just heard are the first words of the inhabitants of another planet, a cosmic document.
00:05:56Yes.
00:05:58Yes, but it's unfortunate that the magnetic spool was damaged through the effect of the high temperature,
00:06:10which prevailed aboard the cosmic vessel at the time of the crash.
00:06:14That's the reason we've only heard a part of the text.
00:06:17We must try to find a method to renovate the rest.
00:06:20First, we'll immerse the spool in a chemical catalytical medium, and after that, subject it to radiation.
00:06:28Chen Yu?
00:06:29Yes.
00:06:29That's a very good idea.
00:06:31Sir, all that we have learned indicates that on Venus there is a highly developed life form.
00:06:37Yet I'm wondering why Venus stays silent.
00:06:41It's very surprising.
00:06:42Now we know a little of this language, we must, at every cost, communicate with her.
00:06:49I agree with you.
00:06:50It's high time we made this happen.
00:06:51Well, then, I'd like to propose a course of action.
00:06:56I think the most logical thing to do would be to request that our governments consent to train all the radio and radar stations of the world and Venus.
00:07:04Solar Station calling Moon Space Station.
00:07:22Attention, please.
00:07:23Luna 3.
00:07:25Attention, please.
00:07:26Luna 3.
00:07:31This is Station Luna 3.
00:07:32I'll keep it in mind.
00:07:33Station Luna 3 calling Earth.
00:07:36No replies yet from Venus.
00:07:38Our signals are reaching the planet, but so far there's no reply.
00:07:41We'll keep you informed.
00:07:55Good morning, my friends.
00:07:56May I please have an interview with us?
00:07:57This afternoon I have news of the utmost importance to announce.
00:08:00As you probably know already, our most modern spaceship, the Cosmos Trator, is now completed and ready to set forth on our exploration of space.
00:08:07The World Federation for Space Research has decided to change the destination of the Cosmos Trator.
00:08:12Instead of sending her to Mars, she will be directed toward the planet Venus.
00:08:16Oh, that's great news, isn't it?
00:08:18Have you any ideas of the date of the takeoff?
00:08:20One more question, if you don't mind, Professor.
00:08:22Do you think there's anybody living on Venus?
00:08:24Did you manage to make contact with me?
00:08:25No, my friends.
00:08:26Venus is silent, but we'll soon discover why.
00:08:28And who's going with you?
00:08:30Well, let me present some of the other scientists who'll take part in this expedition.
00:08:33They are all first-class specialists, chosen from among the most qualified in their particular fields.
00:08:39They, with others who are coming, will form the crew of Cosmos Trator One.
00:08:42Well, all the units of propulsion are in perfect working order.
00:09:03That's fine.
00:09:03The crew can now attend to their personal affairs.
00:09:06We'll start late tomorrow night and fly following the hyperbolic trajectory.
00:09:10Good.
00:09:10I'll make a last check.
00:09:11See you later, Doron.
00:09:13Talua, will you please make a thorough recheck of the radar right away, Professor?
00:09:19This is Vision calling the world.
00:09:21We have just showed you the preliminary tests of the Cosmos Trator's rockets.
00:09:25Arriving now is Brinkman, the first American spaceman to land on the moon.
00:09:38Ladies and gentlemen, I have an important announcement to make.
00:09:41Intervision is going to present you, minute by minute, the historic launching of the Cosmos Trator.
00:09:46We know very well how much you'd like to be here with us.
00:09:49Unfortunately, that's impossible.
00:09:50The only ones admitted are those directly concerned with the countdown and final blast-off of the rocket.
00:09:56So I will try to describe in detail everything that's taking place.
00:09:59Intervision will bring to you the wonderful story of this great event.
00:10:03Ah, but here come the first members of the crew.
00:10:08Among them is Professor Dioran, the chief engineer.
00:10:11He's a French scientist well-known for his work on robots.
00:10:16We'll load the chronocopter later on in the evening.
00:10:18That's, of course, if it's all right with you.
00:10:20Yes, of course.
00:10:21I've checked out your electronic equipment.
00:10:22Good.
00:10:24Professor Dioran, report from Station A.
00:10:25Your celestial charts are ready.
00:10:27Hello, Dioran.
00:10:36Oh, Dioran.
00:10:37I'm glad to see you again.
00:10:39So am I.
00:10:39Still working as hard?
00:10:40How about showing me your latest creation in robots?
00:10:43I hear it's a masterpiece.
00:10:44Around here we have nothing but masterpieces.
00:10:47Omigam.
00:10:48Come here, Omigam.
00:10:57Omigam, what's the weather report for the next ten hours?
00:11:07The thermometer will rise four millibars.
00:11:13Four millibars.
00:11:15Five and five.
00:11:16Why, that's fantastic.
00:11:18Your latest invention?
00:11:20Oh, nothing special.
00:11:21Just a small gadget.
00:11:23You're a lot too modest, Dioran.
00:11:25What else does he do?
00:11:26He reacts to stimuli his environment and evaluates them with his electronic brain.
00:11:30I recently managed to give Omigam an elementary memory.
00:11:34Wonderful.
00:11:36Perhaps he might consent to play chess with me.
00:11:39A specially picked crew of the Cosmostrator have reached Uranium.
00:11:43Eight of them.
00:11:44Scientists, mathematicians, and astrophysicists.
00:11:48Seven men and a woman.
00:11:51She's the physician of the expedition and has already spent two years on Luna 3.
00:11:55Sumiko.
00:11:56Sumiko.
00:11:58Brinkman.
00:12:01Have I changed that much?
00:12:03Oh, I don't know.
00:12:06I've got it.
00:12:07Your hair used to hang down to your waist.
00:12:09Mr. Brinkman.
00:12:10Yes?
00:12:11You forgot this.
00:12:11Oh, thank you.
00:12:12Robert Brinkman.
00:12:17The man who's always forgetting something.
00:12:19I have a reputation for that.
00:12:21You're right.
00:12:22But there are things I'll never forget.
00:12:27No, Brinkman.
00:12:28On a voyage of this kind, there'll be no room for excess baggage.
00:12:33Dr. Sumiko Omigura.
00:12:3730 hours left.
00:12:3930 hours and the Cosmostrator will blast off into the unknown.
00:12:43Now we will leave the air.
00:12:45In the next few hours, the crew of eight picked for the Cosmostrator
00:12:48will be unable to communicate with the world.
00:12:50They're going into a state of artificially induced sleep
00:12:54till the time comes for them to take off.
00:12:56This is to make sure that they will be in good physical condition
00:12:59for the effort to come.
00:13:01This is intervention.
00:13:02Good afternoon.
00:13:12Brinkman, in two minutes you'll be asleep,
00:13:15like all your colleagues,
00:13:17whether you want to or not.
00:13:18You'll be able to see and hear your heart.
00:13:36I'm very glad you're coming with us, Sumiko.
00:13:39That way I'll be near you.
00:13:43Your heartbeat is normal.
00:13:46Sumiko.
00:13:46Well, my heart is...
00:13:49No, Brinkman, no.
00:13:51No, please, we mustn't speak of that, ever.
00:14:05Good night, Robert.
00:14:08It's time for you to sleep too, Dr. Sumiko.
00:14:10Oh, yes, you're right.
00:14:11This is InterVision.
00:14:36InterVision calling the world.
00:14:40It won't be long now until the blast of it.
00:14:43Tension is mounting among the scientists and technicians on the base
00:14:46as zero hour approaches.
00:14:51Everything is ready.
00:14:52All we're waiting for is the crew.
00:14:55All we're waiting for is the crew.
00:14:56And here they are.
00:15:01The figures of the crew are finished.
00:15:03They are now boarding the vehicles which will take them to the Cosmos train.
00:15:06Time check.
00:15:2851, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60.
00:15:47Okay.
00:15:49Rockets primed ready for blast-off.
00:15:54Breathe calmly.
00:15:56Relax.
00:15:58Don't tense up.
00:16:00Ignition system ready.
00:16:04Ten seconds.
00:16:05Nine.
00:16:06Eight.
00:16:08Seven.
00:16:09Six.
00:16:11Five.
00:16:12Four.
00:16:13Stand by.
00:16:13Five.
00:16:14Three.
00:16:15Two.
00:16:16One.
00:16:18Zero.
00:16:18Zero.
00:16:33Zero.
00:16:38Zero.
00:16:39Zero.
00:16:39Luna 3, calling Urania.
00:17:03Have Cosmos Trader on our radar screen.
00:17:05Appearance normal.
00:17:07We're feeling all right?
00:17:08No ill effect.
00:17:12Riding the clouds.
00:17:15At over-second cosmic velocity, we've left them way behind us.
00:17:19I'm going to loosen this belt.
00:17:21It's uncomfortable.
00:17:25Hey, be careful.
00:17:26Don't forget, there's no gravity.
00:17:27We're in free fall now.
00:17:38Duran.
00:17:45We're in free.
00:17:47Duran, switch on the artificial gravity field, will you?
00:18:00Olaf, careful. I'm pushing the button.
00:18:17That was a dirty trick.
00:18:30Cosmos Trader calling Luna 3. Come in, Luna 3.
00:18:36This is Luna 3. We are receiving you well. Over and out.
00:18:41Hello, Luna 3. We hear you loud and clear.
00:18:44Minus two plus five. Course normal. Course normal.
00:18:49Our course is exactly hyperbolic. No deviations.
00:18:52We are passing within 1,200 miles of you.
00:18:54This is Luna 3. We have established visual contact with you.
00:18:58That's the sinus roars crater.
00:19:02On the top of it is Luna 3.
00:19:08There's the solar reflector. They're signaling us.
00:19:14That's where her husband fell.
00:19:21I brought him back to the camp, but he was already dead.
00:19:27We were friends.
00:19:29You know, Suniko is a wonderful woman.
00:19:34This is Luna 3.
00:19:36has picked up unexpected swarms of meteorites on our radar.
00:19:40Their present trajectory shows that they may cross your path and be very dangerous.
00:19:44We are receiving you. Over.
00:19:47Here are the trajectory coordinates and orbital velocities.
00:19:51Alpha X, seven degrees, two minutes.
00:19:55Beta Ypsilon, 48 degrees, 42 minutes.
00:19:59A meteorite swarm should reach us in 48 hours at the latest.
00:20:11That is, if there are no orbit fluctuations.
00:20:14Keep close radio contact with Luna 3.
00:20:16Cosmos straight are calling Luna 3.
00:20:17You've received your meteorite warning.
00:20:18We'll be sending you regularly coordinates of our course.
00:20:19So stay in close contact.
00:20:20This is the beginning of my personal log book.
00:20:26There's no one in the nerve center of the Cosmos straighter.
00:20:29The computer is keeping us on our course.
00:20:30In case of the data,
00:20:31the meteorite's our current laboratory.
00:20:32The computer has now been a complete mission.
00:20:33That is, if there are no orbit fluctuations.
00:20:34Keep close radio contact with Luna 3.
00:20:35Cosmos straight are calling Luna 3.
00:20:36You've received your meteorite warning.
00:20:37We'll be sending you regularly coordinates of our course.
00:20:38So stay in close contact.
00:20:44This is the beginning of my personal logbook.
00:20:47There's no one in the nerve center of the cosmos trader.
00:20:52The computer is keeping us on our course.
00:20:55In case of unforeseen circumstances,
00:20:58it can take immediate decisions to alter our speed or direction.
00:21:02This electronic brain will be our pilot for the next 30 days,
00:21:06because no human being could handle the immensely complex machines of the spaceship by himself.
00:21:11Up to now, we have covered a distance of 2,600,000 miles.
00:21:18Dr. Amigura is noting our reactions carefully
00:21:21and keeping close check on our health and well-being.
00:21:24The special liquid food which can easily be absorbed in a state of no gravity
00:21:28is proving very successful with all of us.
00:21:37Our chief engineer spends most of his time in his machine shop.
00:21:41testing his automats over and over again.
00:21:44It is thanks to them that we are relieved of many tiresome tasks.
00:21:49Our expert in cybernetics has to be everywhere.
00:21:54He's one of the key men of the expedition.
00:21:56Besser Siganov devotes all his time to the message from Venus.
00:22:02He and Chen Yu are trying to decipher the damaged spool,
00:22:06which means they spend long hours at the Marix.
00:22:09The electronic brain is working night and day,
00:22:12but no one can be sure what the result will be.
00:22:13Haringway, our commander, is keeping a constant check on our course.
00:22:25Your computer was active last night.
00:22:28It switched the rockets on for nearly 17 seconds.
00:22:31Perhaps to avoid the meteor swarm.
00:22:35We won't be running into it till tomorrow.
00:22:38It looks like your automats don't have the same idea that you do.
00:22:42Professor Orloff is an enthusiastic chess player.
00:22:49He has beaten all of us, but I think he's found his master in onager.
00:22:54King G-8.
00:22:58King E-6.
00:23:12That's amazing.
00:23:14He plays his end game wonderfully.
00:23:17I thought that I had got him, but you see, he's put his king on E-6.
00:23:21And I'm forced into the corner at H-8.
00:23:28King E-7.
00:23:35Check me next move.
00:23:48That is the tenth match that I've lost.
00:23:51I should give up, I guess.
00:23:53I would suggest that you make an improvement in Omega.
00:23:56Oh, really?
00:23:57If he only had a heart, he would let Orloff win once in a while.
00:24:03Don't you think you could be able to do that?
00:24:07Just a little bit of heart, Jerome.
00:24:27See you right.
00:24:28See you right.
00:24:29Ring light switch on the emergency gyro.
00:24:30Ring lights, switch on the emergency gyro.
00:25:00Brinkman, see if Chen Yu and Cicardo are all right.
00:25:19How could this happen?
00:25:21I thought that the Cosmos trader was able to avoid meteor swarms automatically.
00:25:25She didn't react quickly enough. She was regulated to a shower of under mass aid.
00:25:30That was why we had to switch on the emergency gyros.
00:25:38Olaf, how much course deviation?
00:25:48Twelve degrees, seventeen minutes.
00:25:52Hour speed?
00:25:54Constant. Eight point two miles a second.
00:25:58I estimate the principal swarm will be on us soon.
00:26:01If we continue at maximum speed, it'll mean disaster.
00:26:05Cut the motors.
00:26:06We're going to decelerate.
00:26:13The braking motors aren't working.
00:26:15What's the matter, Delvan?
00:26:25A meteor fragment has damaged the deceleration unit.
00:26:28We'll have to go outside and try to repair it right away.
00:26:31I'll go at once.
00:26:33How long before the main swarm hits us?
00:26:35I can't say. It may be on us any second now.
00:26:37Brinkman, will you help me?
00:26:39Professor Sikana and Chen Yu, are you all right?
00:26:42No bones broken.
00:26:44That's fine.
00:26:45Please give me our present deviation, direction coordinates and corrected course.
00:27:08For the last minute it's a single day.
00:27:09Do you want to go?
00:27:10That's fine.
00:27:12That's fine.
00:27:13I'm going to go.
00:27:14Don't forget.
00:27:15I don't want to leave.
00:27:16Go in.
00:27:18I'll be wrong with all of you.
00:27:20Don't forget.
00:27:21You want to leave.
00:27:23I'll leave.
00:27:25I love you.
00:27:27I know.
00:27:29I want to leave.
00:27:31You want to leave.
00:27:33Come here.
00:27:34Watch out.
00:27:44Everybody fasten your belts.
00:27:57Stand by.
00:27:58Principal Swarm's in sight.
00:28:04Is it safe to start the motors yet?
00:28:10Repair is completed.
00:28:11You're on back.
00:28:21Cosmo Strader calling Luna 3.
00:28:24Cosmo Strader calling Luna 3.
00:28:25Meteor Swarm has passed.
00:28:29Everything okay on board.
00:28:34Three weeks have gone by since we left the Earth.
00:28:45We should reach Venus in about ten days.
00:28:48In spite of our enormous speed, the stars seem to hang motions.
00:28:52Due to all types of disturbances caused by the planet, radio contact with Earth is no longer possible.
00:28:57Nothing.
00:28:58Too much interference.
00:28:59I can't hear a thing.
00:29:00Keep trying.
00:29:01Alpha X, 32 degrees, eight minutes.
00:29:09Beta Y, seven degrees.
00:29:16What are you doing?
00:29:19I'm making a heart for Omega.
00:29:22Ten consecutive defeats are driving our friend crazy.
00:29:25I want him to enjoy his favorite game.
00:29:27I would like you to do something also for me.
00:29:30It would be nice to see you eat occasionally.
00:29:33I swear not to forget anymore.
00:29:36Sir Cardo said exactly the same thing.
00:29:46Professor.
00:29:48What do you want?
00:29:49Please, not now.
00:29:54Your health is my responsibility and you haven't eaten for days.
00:29:57I haven't a second to spare.
00:29:59I haven't a second to spare.
00:29:59Zomiko.
00:30:12Sumiko.
00:30:15You mustn't insist.
00:30:17He's nervous.
00:30:18He's having a very hard time with that spoon.
00:30:20You understand.
00:30:20Night e6 check
00:30:39Doesn't like that
00:30:41Hey congratulations you've won at last
00:30:55Neat classical end play. I think you deserve to win
00:31:00He plays a good game. He's not very easy to beat
00:31:04But I did it at last man has defeated the machine. Yeah, too much heart
00:31:08Want a try? Why not? Will you all come to the Marex please?
00:31:16That's a cosmic document
00:31:30We have finally deciphered the last part of the spool it gives complete meaning to the cosmic document
00:31:38I
00:31:59Will translate
00:32:02We will initially subject the planet to a very intense bombardment of radiation
00:32:08The conquest and occupation of the earth will then present no difficulty
00:32:12When the ionization intensity is fallen by one half the final extermination phase can start
00:32:18This can only mean
00:32:21An attack against our planet
00:32:24An invasion by the inhabitants of venus
00:32:26The cosmic document was not intended for us to read
00:32:30It's a cold-blooded blueprint of destruction
00:32:32We must inform the earth. I'll try and make contact
00:32:36Wait Tom
00:32:37No, let him try
00:32:38Will it do the earth any good to know what we know?
00:32:41The earth is in danger. We must warn them
00:32:44No, our planet was in peril before they discovered the spool and nothing happened
00:32:49That's no argument as we haven't any idea how the venusians calculate time
00:32:54If the earth knew of the terrible danger threatening her
00:32:57Unrest and even hysteria would spread like wildfire
00:33:01From pole to pole the whole world would be in a panic
00:33:07No, no, Olaf
00:33:09I'm convinced you're wrong
00:33:12For years and years the whole of the human race faced the danger of an atomic war
00:33:16Yes
00:33:16And they survived
00:33:18Not through ignorance but through knowledge
00:33:21Because they knew what the danger was
00:33:23Hmm
00:33:26No
00:33:27There won't be a panic
00:33:30Chenyu don't you agree with me
00:33:33I'm sure that if we meet the inhabitants of venus
00:33:37We'll be able to convince them that it would be folly to start that war
00:33:41Talua try to contact the earth
00:33:45I can't get through too much disturbance for venus
00:33:48Our signals are distorted
00:33:52The earth won't hear us
00:34:00Well what do you say should we turn back to earth
00:34:06No
00:34:11Nonsense
00:34:16Return
00:34:17No
00:34:19Never
00:34:33Devant our speed
00:34:3531,000 miles per hour
00:34:38In three days we'll reach venus
00:34:40Good
00:34:40Delaware check our course
00:34:42All off
00:34:44The latest readings
00:34:45Gamma radiation increasing steadily
00:34:47I'll recheck the neutron count
00:34:585,000 miles
00:34:59After only 31 days of flight we have nearly reached our destination
00:35:03All our efforts to communicate with the earth via luna 3 have been unsuccessful
00:35:08We have started to decelerate by means of our rocket motors
00:35:11Professor herringway is guiding the ship into an elliptical orbit around venus
00:35:15We are now a satellite of this silent planet
00:35:19We are still trying but in vain to establish radio contact with her inhabitants
00:35:24A thick wall of clouds surrounds the planet
00:35:293,500 miles
00:35:32First analysis of venus atmosphere
00:35:3427 percent carbon dioxide
00:35:3714 percent formaldehyde
00:35:39No oxygen atmosphere poisonous
00:35:44We're faced with a difficult decision
00:35:46As you know we can only land and take off once
00:35:49No point in taking any unnecessary chances
00:35:52So one of us has got to go ahead as scout
00:35:542,000 miles
00:35:542,000 miles
00:35:55We're close enough now
00:35:56I'll go in the crawler copter
00:35:58Okay Brinkman
00:36:00You've got to try and find a landing place for us
00:36:03We'll stay in orbit at 150 miles altitude all right
00:36:06The crawler copter is ready
00:36:071,500 miles
00:36:08Well now let's don't be four
00:36:22Action stations
00:36:23Action stations everyone
00:36:31750 miles
00:36:33Stand by
00:36:35We are now entering the atmosphere of venus
00:36:37Attention
00:36:38We're flying at 300 miles altitude
00:37:03Our present speed is 4.3 miles a second
00:37:06Are you ready Brinkman?
00:37:13All right let her go
00:37:19Release
00:37:36Brinkman
00:37:37Hello
00:37:38Hello Brinkman
00:37:39Hello
00:37:41What's the matter with his receiver?
00:37:43I'm not getting you
00:37:45There's something wrong with your receiver
00:37:47Can you hear me now?
00:37:48I can't understand you
00:37:49Something's wrong with your transmitter
00:37:52Hello
00:37:53What's the matter with our transmitter?
00:37:54Heavy electrical disturbance
00:37:56We're completely blocked out
00:37:57We're completely blocked out
00:37:58Hello
00:37:59Brinkman
00:38:01What is it Brinkman?
00:38:02Herringway
00:38:03Can you hear me?
00:38:04Can you hear me?
00:38:07I'm now at 1,500 feet
00:38:09Visibility nil
00:38:12Radar indicates that the surface is extremely mountainous
00:38:15I can't see anything
00:38:16I can't see anything
00:38:17I'm completely surrounded by thick clouds
00:38:20Wait a minute
00:38:21Yes
00:38:22I can see land
00:38:23Boys
00:38:23I can see land
00:38:25Wait a minute
00:38:31Hello
00:38:32Hello
00:38:33Cosmos creature
00:38:34I can't hear you
00:38:36I'm landing
00:38:37Here she goes
00:38:41Brinkman is not receiving us
00:38:43I can't make contact
00:38:46Our altitude
00:38:4824,000 feet
00:38:55Amiga, you take the lead
00:39:18Go on
00:39:25I'm right behind you
00:39:40I don't understand
00:39:41I'm puzzled by these strange flashes of light which we keep seeing
00:39:47They're bursting all around us
00:39:49What do you make of them all off?
00:39:52In my opinion
00:39:53The atmosphere in this area is ionized
00:39:55But what's the cause?
00:39:56Atomic radiation
00:39:58Then that means that they're attacking us
00:40:01And Brinkman
00:40:02We must fly lower
00:40:05We must get below this bank of clouds
00:40:07If we want to establish contact with Brinkman
00:40:10That's the only way
00:40:12Brinkman calling
00:40:13Cosmos traitor
00:40:14Please answer me
00:40:15Over
00:40:20Amiga
00:40:22Amiga
00:40:23Listening
00:40:26Be careful
00:40:28Danger
00:40:30Go on Amiga
00:40:32Intense
00:40:33Radiation
00:40:36Eight
00:40:36Puree
00:40:38How long can we stay here?
00:40:42Eight
00:40:43Minutes
00:40:44Maximal
00:40:45Turn back Amiga
00:40:53Cosmos traitor
00:40:54Cosmos traitor
00:40:54Cosmos traitor
00:40:56I don't hear you
00:41:00Hello
00:41:00Hello
00:41:02You hear me?
00:41:04This blasted radioactive forest won't let radio waves through
00:41:09Go on over there
00:41:10Go on
00:41:13Keep going
00:41:14Keep on
00:41:25Hold it Amiga
00:41:25They're attacking us
00:41:28Cosmos traitor
00:41:28Cosmos traitor
00:41:30Do you hear me?
00:41:30Do you hear me?
00:41:31The crawler cop has exploded
00:41:34A flash
00:41:37See that?
00:41:38What was it?
00:41:40I don't know
00:41:41The computer shows a pressure wave
00:41:43Apparently an explosion
00:41:44Distance
00:41:45120 miles
00:41:49Brinkman
00:41:49Or it could be a signal from the Venusians
00:41:54We'd better land at once as best we can
00:41:57Tellua
00:41:58Make a careful check on our position
00:42:00And try to contact Brinkman again
00:42:07Over here
00:42:08Back here
00:42:09Quickly
00:42:20Gamma
00:42:22I won the letter
00:42:24I won the letter
00:42:25And let join the Zoe
00:42:27We will see if it's alright
00:42:28A bit of a
00:42:28More
00:42:43A bit of a
00:42:45Cotch
00:42:46Spass
00:42:47A bit of a
00:42:48Stand by.
00:42:55Deceleration rockets.
00:42:56Thrust.
00:42:5718, 21, 24, 27, 30.
00:43:1814, 23, 22, 02, 24, 25, 27, 22, 24, 27, 22, 23, 24, 27, 23, 24, 27, 24, 28, 24, 29.
00:43:48His crawler copter exploded.
00:43:55Poor old Brinkman.
00:43:57There's the cause.
00:43:59There's a high tension line underground.
00:44:01Duran, get the crawlers out of the way
00:44:03or the next time the voltage mounts,
00:44:04exactly the same thing will happen to us.
00:44:07The voltage out.
00:44:18Oh, my God.
00:44:26Brinkman, we thought you were dead.
00:44:28I was lucky.
00:44:29You might have chosen a better place to land.
00:44:31Why? What do you mean?
00:44:32There's a high tension line over there.
00:44:35Now, your machine blew up just because you landed
00:44:37right on top of that surface power line.
00:44:39All we have to do is to follow it,
00:44:41and it will probably lead us to the inhabitants of Venus.
00:44:44There's no point in trying to do that.
00:44:46I've already found the inhabitants of Venus,
00:44:49and I've brought one of them back for you.
00:44:56What is it?
00:44:59I wonder if it is a form of life.
00:45:03I'll investigate at once.
00:45:07All right, Chen Yu.
00:45:08And while he's doing that,
00:45:10let's go and try to follow that line.
00:45:12Okay.
00:45:16Come on.
00:45:31Crawler, please come in.
00:45:33Crawler, please come in.
00:45:35We're following the power line.
00:45:38Something very strange here.
00:45:39A white sphere that looks like a...
00:45:41an immense gospel.
00:45:52It's incredible.
00:45:53You think it's a machine, Orloff?
00:45:55Well, I can't say yet.
00:45:58I don't know.
00:45:59Everything here is so strange.
00:46:01It's as if we're trying to decipher a book
00:46:04in an unknown language.
00:46:06Let's hope that soon we'll be able to read it.
00:46:09And perhaps we'll understand.
00:46:12Orloff, let me know when you've got your instruments ready.
00:46:15I'll need all the figures I can get.
00:46:17Okay, Sir Carlis.
00:46:19Good.
00:46:20Crawler, stay in close contact with us.
00:46:22Very well, Professor.
00:46:23Sir.
00:46:23I am looking at the observation screen of the Cosmos Trata.
00:46:30Everything is strangely quiet.
00:46:32Is this the calm before the storm?
00:46:34Why don't the Venusians answer?
00:46:37Or are these metallic insects really the masters of this planet?
00:46:41Chen Yu is working day and night to solve the mystery of these strange creatures.
00:46:45We have investigated your strange inhabitants.
00:47:09They're completely harmless.
00:47:11They're not a form of life.
00:47:12Well, I think how scared I was in that hole.
00:47:14Your discovery is more significant than you think.
00:47:18I put one of the microcrystals in the Marex.
00:47:20Listen.
00:47:21Listen.
00:47:21Listen.
00:47:28Listen.
00:47:33Listen.
00:47:41yes those were the voices of the venusians i would say that these strange metallic incense
00:47:55had a way of storing sound in their crystalline nuclei are you trying to tell us that the venusians
00:48:02use these insects to record both speech and sound that's right but that's fantastic yes but it's
00:48:07true well that would mean that the hole which brinkman fell into is a chamber of archives
00:48:13containing some of the records of this planet but then where can the inhabitants be they certainly
00:48:20saw a spaceship land they couldn't have missed it yet nothing happened nothing at all and my machine
00:48:27blowing you call that nothing i need more figures more data and especially more of those metallic
00:48:35concerns the research program is going according to plan we are all fascinated by the vitrified forest
00:48:47but our spacesuits are so heavy that working outside the ship is difficult
00:48:52the investigation of the power lines leading to the white sphere and measurement of tension
00:48:57changes is done by oscillograph the storms which whip across venus only make the work harder
00:49:05that's where the lines lead to all right
00:49:10there's no doubt
00:49:14that's it
00:49:23chen yu is collecting samples of the sand to carry it by the storm
00:49:28sometimes they are radioactive sometimes they are not
00:49:31they are searching for traces of life
00:49:38the long venusian night is always preceded by a violent storm
00:49:48then the outside work must stop and we spend our time studying what we have found so far
00:50:02do you think this vitrified forest is a biological formation
00:50:07why not it could come from a dried up seabed
00:50:11you're wrong it's not a natural formation
00:50:16professor sikana has been feeding figures and data into the electronic brain and he now has some
00:50:21conclusions he says that the vitrified forest is an enormous energy projector
00:50:27capable of destroying all life within a radius of millions of miles
00:50:32then it was built by the inhabitants of venus
00:50:36yes this vitrified forest was made to be a weapon of aggression
00:50:43but then something went unexpectedly wrong
00:50:47perhaps they decided to disarm
00:50:48and i'm afraid it was more serious than that
00:50:54the metal insects you found for us show us something very significant
00:51:01that's very interesting go on tell us more professor sikana
00:51:06i do not yet have all the facts but i think that a terrible catastrophe took place on venus
00:51:12i reached a certain stage and i can't get any further it's chaotic
00:51:18it's like it's like everything was broken
00:51:22now if there really was a catastrophe
00:51:24which changed the face of the whole planet
00:51:28then it was so huge a catastrophe as to be absolutely beyond our powers of comprehension
00:51:32we can only solve this problem
00:51:40by means of further systematic research take this great white sphere to which
00:51:43all these power lines lead and whose function we don't understand
00:51:47it appears to be a giant transformer unit or else it is a a force field generator
00:51:54another strange thing is that there is periodic tension in the main power lines
00:52:02i would even suggest that there might still be venusians inside the sphere
00:52:06who have survived the colossal catastrophe that befell their planet
00:52:10they could still be trying to send an sos to another station what should we do
00:52:18we must go out and explore we'll follow the main power line to the other end
00:52:22yes
00:52:38calling the cosmos trader we have been driving for nearly seven hours now
00:52:43we are following the energy line and so far we haven't found a trace of life
00:52:52this power line's got to end somewhere
00:53:07the herringway shall we keep going yes
00:53:22we're still going forward keep on following us and watch out
00:53:40what's that i don't know they're not natural forms they must have been buildings of some sort
00:53:52there must have been as high a temperature here is on the sun
00:54:14and every living thing was destroyed by an incredible catastrophe
00:54:28what are you thinking tsumiko
00:54:36of the damage
00:54:42of the damage
00:54:56of the damage
00:55:01of the damage
00:55:02of how long that goes in here this must be the entrance
00:55:04let's follow it i agree with you
00:55:10Well, we're going in.
00:55:35Look, Venus and the Earth are orbits around the Sun.
00:55:41Perhaps it's a model for instructing space pilots.
00:55:46You know, it probably has a deeper significance.
00:55:55Over here, there's a shaft.
00:56:00Looks like one of the Linusian nerve centers.
00:56:06A huge control room.
00:56:09But who is servicing it?
00:56:11Since it's apparent that this whole installation is still under tension.
00:56:14Omega.
00:56:27What is it?
00:56:28What is it?
00:56:29Beats me!
00:56:33Strange, what can it be?
00:56:35It might be the missing power source.
00:56:46Look at those bubbles.
00:56:47It could be a kind of organic life.
00:56:49It could be a kind of organic life.
00:57:17Omega, stop!
00:57:30He's coming after us. Look!
00:57:33Up the ramp, Sirico. Quick!
00:57:34Quick!
00:57:35Go!
00:57:37Go.
00:57:38Go.
00:57:40Go.
00:57:45Go.
00:57:47Go!
00:57:51Go!
00:57:59Go!
00:58:00I'm coming!
00:58:30Hold on to me to me.
00:59:00Don't panic, Zoico.
00:59:01We'll find a way out.
00:59:03Don't shoot, Dior!
00:59:04Don't shoot!
00:59:30What was that?
00:59:40Where are the others?
00:59:43I can't see them.
01:00:00I see what Diora meant now.
01:00:08It's a model.
01:00:09They used to work out their plans of attack on the Earth.
01:00:12Remember the cosmic document.
01:00:14It said that they would first subject the planet to a highly intense radiation bombardment.
01:00:19Thanks to this device, they calculated how atomic beams could be directed to our planet.
01:00:24I think you're quite right.
01:00:26And directly beneath us is their operational headquarters.
01:00:29Let's finish it to my borders.
01:00:41We're moving Italy.
01:00:44We are moving Italy.
01:00:52We're moving in Italy.
01:00:56The glass forest is radiating energy. Come quickly.
01:01:06That's just what I was afraid of.
01:01:09Look at that.
01:01:11The sphere's turned red. Gravity's increasing.
01:01:16I am not surprised.
01:01:17But it's incredible.
01:01:20No. Now everything is clear.
01:01:23The sphere creates an artificial force field.
01:01:26Which strengthens the gravitation of Venus.
01:01:29It diminishes it.
01:01:30At this very moment, the power is augmenting.
01:01:33And when the energy is inverted, the field will reverse itself.
01:01:38It will be hurled into space again.
01:01:40Don't worry, Professor. There's still time.
01:01:44Call Haringway quickly.
01:01:47Hello, Haringway. Come in, please.
01:01:56Here we go.
01:01:57I'm sorry.
01:01:57Come on.
01:01:58Haringway quickly.
01:02:01Look out.
01:02:01Yes.
01:02:02Let's go.
01:02:32They're shadows.
01:02:39Thrown on the wall when they were hit by an atomic explosion.
01:02:44Incredible.
01:02:47And now the only thing that is left of them is their shadows.
01:02:56The Mavax is picking up commands from the underground nerve center.
01:03:00Look at the key it's using to decode them.
01:03:03Why, it's incredible, Sakarna.
01:03:08E equal to mc squared.
01:03:11That's Albert Einstein's old formula.
01:03:13Yes, but their integration factor is a curve closed upon itself.
01:03:17Take a look. It's interesting.
01:03:33But that's wonderful.
01:03:35Those are seeds.
01:03:37They're plant seeds.
01:03:38Where did you find them?
01:03:40I found them on the surface near the nerve center.
01:03:43They were certainly carried there by one of those big storms.
01:03:47If these seeds are still fertile, it proves there is life on this planet.
01:03:52Professor Stikando wants everybody in the Marix, please.
01:03:55Our researches on the metal insects found in the cave have told us a little of this planet's history.
01:04:07As to the message we heard, there's no doubt about it.
01:04:11The inhabitants of Venus were contemplating launching an atomic attack on our planet.
01:04:16But the attack wasn't carried out.
01:04:20In accident, they didn't expect to upset their plan.
01:04:24Their atomic weapons got out of their control.
01:04:27A chain reaction was unleashed.
01:04:29And they all perished.
01:04:31Only their shadows remained.
01:04:33And their energy projectors, although partially destroyed, are capable of working again.
01:04:39If their energy reactions are set in motion by some accident or even by one of us.
01:04:43Why, what do you mean that we've started the reaction?
01:04:51When that rock fell into the black mud, what happened?
01:04:55That the rock was thrown out as if the slime was a living thing.
01:04:58Then something terrible happened.
01:05:00The slime began to grow rapidly.
01:05:03First, it dilated.
01:05:05Now tell us, what happened next?
01:05:07The black slime started to move.
01:05:09Yes.
01:05:10It began to follow us.
01:05:11We were cornered.
01:05:13What did you do?
01:05:14I used the Duteron ray gun and I shot into it.
01:05:19You should never have done that.
01:05:22You started an atomic reaction.
01:05:24There was nothing else to do.
01:05:26We had no other way of getting out.
01:05:29Yes.
01:05:31You started a chain reaction over the whole atomic installation.
01:05:36Now we're really in a nice mess.
01:05:37What can we do?
01:05:40What time was it?
01:05:4117 hours 10.
01:05:42I remember.
01:05:43Yes.
01:05:45Yes.
01:05:45It was at that moment that the sphere turned red.
01:05:48It looks as if mass changed into energy by process, rather like that of the atom bomb.
01:05:55The people of this planet knew how to reverse the process.
01:05:58They changed mass into energy, but also they could change energy back into mass.
01:06:04Fantastic.
01:06:04The events of Venus are, or rather were, far in advance of us in the applications of physics.
01:06:10That's one thing we have to acknowledge.
01:06:25Omega, stop.
01:06:27Omega!
01:06:27Omega is out of control.
01:06:40Breakman, switch off all the automats.
01:06:42Tower, come and help me.
01:06:46The glass fire is off.
01:06:53The sphere is turning red.
01:06:57The radiation from the glass forest has upset Omega's electronic brain.
01:07:05The Marek's computer has gone out of action as well.
01:07:07Look!
01:07:18If the radiation keeps on increasing like this, we won't have a chance.
01:07:23Even the Cosmos trader's lead shielding won't be enough to protect us.
01:07:26I think he has internal injuries.
01:07:31I must operate.
01:07:34Start up the rocket, Sarvon.
01:07:36We must take off at once before it's too late.
01:07:39The motors won't work.
01:07:40The gravity field is increasing more and more.
01:07:43The radiation has paralyzed everything.
01:07:44Nothing is working.
01:07:45The whole Cosmos trader is nothing but an inert lump of metal.
01:07:49We must try to do what the Venusians did, make the energy of the glass force in the sphere change back into mass once more.
01:08:07Yes, but how?
01:08:09When the mud attacked you on the tower.
01:08:15And you decided to use the ray gun which changed the mass into energy.
01:08:18I think I saw something was happening in the Venusian nerve center.
01:08:22I think I know how to start the reverse process.
01:08:26Can I use the rocket plane?
01:08:27You're forgetting the gravity field.
01:08:30It won't fly.
01:08:33But the chlorocopter will work.
01:08:36You mustn't go alone.
01:08:39I'll come with you.
01:08:57We're entering the Venusian city.
01:09:08The hurricane is getting much worse.
01:09:11How is Haringway?
01:09:13The doctor is operating now.
01:09:17Sumika will manage.
01:09:24Swap.
01:09:27How are you coming along, Duran?
01:09:44Fine.
01:09:45I've managed to fix the computer.
01:09:47Jin Yu, can you hear me?
01:09:49Where are you?
01:09:50We're starting to climb down into the Venusian nerve center.
01:09:57Let's go.
01:10:00Wake up.
01:10:09Go away.
01:10:14I'm getting to see the logs.
01:10:17You are standing there.
01:10:19Welcome home.
01:10:21You are over here.
01:10:22Come on.
01:10:22Come on.
01:10:23Doctor, stop.
01:10:24Come on.
01:10:24Come on.
01:10:25My space suit, it's punctured.
01:10:47I'm coming to help you.
01:10:49No, Talia, we're going down.
01:10:51You must save the others.
01:10:52Anyway, I can't hold out for long.
01:10:57My air is escaping.
01:11:14The sphere is white again.
01:11:16Look, Cicada.
01:11:17Talia has succeeded in reversing the field.
01:11:19My space suit is punctured.
01:11:22My oxygen is escaping and the safety device has failed.
01:11:25Try to hold out, Shen Yu.
01:11:27You've got to.
01:11:29The gravity is back to normal.
01:11:31I'll set off at once in the rocket plane.
01:11:34I'll get you out of it, Shen Yu.
01:11:35Hold on.
01:11:36I'm coming with oxygen.
01:11:41Shen Yu.
01:11:42Hello, Shen Yu.
01:11:43Hold up.
01:11:46Breedman is coming.
01:11:51Shen Yu.
01:11:54Shen Yu.
01:11:55I must talk to him.
01:11:57Shen Yu, listen to me.
01:11:58Those seeds that you found.
01:12:00They're growing.
01:12:01They're growing, Shen Yu.
01:12:03You've proved that there's life on the planet.
01:12:06Yes, Shen Yu, there's still life on Venus.
01:12:13Sumiko.
01:12:13There's life.
01:12:15There's life.
01:12:15There's life.
01:12:15The breaking motors, Duran.
01:12:29The breaking motors.
01:12:31Talua.
01:12:32Shen Yu.
01:12:33Breedman.
01:12:34Come back at once.
01:12:36We can't hold the Cosmos Trader down.
01:12:37We're being pushed off the planet.
01:12:39The reverse process is in action.
01:12:40The energy field is acting like a catapult.
01:12:43The negative gravity is increasing.
01:13:00Breedman.
01:13:01Can you hear me?
01:13:02We're being hurled into space.
01:13:04Talua.
01:13:05Shen Yu.
01:13:05Breedman.
01:13:05Are you receiving me?
01:13:07Sumiko.
01:13:09Sumiko.
01:13:11Oralus.
01:13:12We must try and go back.
01:13:14Please.
01:13:15Please.
01:13:20Cosmos Trader.
01:13:22Where are you?
01:13:23Are you receiving me?
01:13:24I can't get back.
01:13:26I'm being hurled off the planet.
01:13:28Ah!
01:13:28Ah!
01:13:30Ah!
01:13:30Ah!
01:13:31Ah!

01:13:42Ah!
01:13:42Ah!
01:13:44Ah!
01:13:49Cosmos Freeder.
01:13:50You're taking off?
01:13:51You're leaving me?
01:13:53Peering way.
01:13:54Oralus.
01:13:55Don't leave me!
01:13:56Don't leave me!
01:13:58Don't leave me!
01:13:58Oh!
01:13:59Cosmos Freeder!
01:14:00Cosmos Freeder!
01:14:03Luna 3 calling the Earth.
01:14:12The Cosmos Treader is returning.
01:14:14The Cosmos Treader is returning.
01:14:15We have called them, but at the moment, there is no reply.
01:14:33The Cosmos Treader
01:15:03The Cosmos Treader
01:15:33The Cosmos Treader
01:16:03The Cosmos Treader
