The film opens with a non-sequitur prologue in which a narrator voice explains space flight concepts. Models of space craft "currently under development by the United States Government" are shown in succession. The narrator usefully explains that "the motion picture you are about to see may be called 'a fantasy of the future'."

00:04:07Ground control will now take command for launching. Blast off is set for O-2100. All personnel must be at
00:04:15their stations.
00:04:34You've worked so hard. We've come so far.
00:04:40Just keep the faith and courage you've always shown.
00:04:43Dr. Gordon, Dr. Gordon, forgive the intrusion. As personal representative of the President, I want to extend best wishes for
00:04:53the success of Project Red Planet from all the people of South Ends.
00:04:57Thank you. We're approaching second units. We're approaching second unit countdown. Our hopes for the future go with you.
00:05:07All visitors must leave the lodging area. Passengers will board immediately.
00:05:16Take good care.
00:05:18Now you see that he does. I promise not to let her out of my atmosphere.
00:05:22He's always joking.
00:05:40You know, this flight to the space station could become just a routine stopover.
00:05:46An interplanet bus stop.
00:05:50I hope your mother approves of me.
00:05:56Do you think she does?
00:05:59Of course.
00:06:00Nancy, have you lost your confidence?
00:06:02Don't be silly.
00:06:05Countdown entering stage red. All personnel stand ready. Synchronized units now being switched over to master control.
00:06:23This is control.

00:09:32STAND BY TO RECEIVE FLIGHT NUMBER 8-7 FROM EARTH.
00:09:39THE END
00:10:23HAVE ALL PREPARATION BEEN COMPLETED? YES, SIR!
00:10:32WELCOME, DR. GARDEN. IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU, COMMANDER.
00:10:35Hello, Paul.
00:10:36COMMANDER DANIELS?
00:10:38RIGHT THIS WAY, GENTLEMEN. MY MEN WILL TAKE CARE OF YOUR FOOT.
00:10:50Hey! Astronaut Johnson just blasted off from Mars.
00:10:57Tell us when you get there. I will if I can find a telephone. Don't reverse the charges.
00:11:12Actually, we had the Mercury ready for you two days ahead of schedule.
00:11:16We've gained so much by assembling the ship here, not just the fuel and added rocket power,
00:11:22but we've been spared the atmospheric strain against the ship.
00:11:25Which could well mean the difference.
00:11:27Without a doubt.
00:11:31Turn on spaceship Mercury.
00:11:37It's not going to be easy, you know, staying behind.
00:11:40Now look, you were the one who said this flight wasn't going to be a spaceman's holiday.
00:11:44So just consider yourself as being lucky.
00:11:46I hope you're wrong.
00:11:48I think it really means you're more important here.
00:11:52Any changes?
00:11:53Not so far.
00:11:55Here are the Micronic charts.
00:11:58The solar reports continue to verify our last calculations.
00:12:02Couldn't ask for better conditions.
00:12:04How long will it last?
00:12:05An estimated five or six weeks.
00:12:07Beyond that, we'd be taking a chance.
00:12:09If all continues as planned, we shouldn't have any problems.
00:12:13None whatsoever.
00:12:15Commander, we are receiving an encoded television wave.
00:12:19You can screen it for us here.
00:12:21Yes, sir.
00:12:24It couldn't be coming from one of our ships.
00:12:26All flights have been diverted, with the project in effect.
00:12:30We'll find out soon enough.
00:12:32We request your aid.
00:12:35Identify yourself.
00:12:36And state the nature of your request.
00:12:39This is Captain Torrance and Dr. Martin aboard the ship Typhoon from North Hemis.
00:12:44We request permission to land for emergency repairs.
00:12:48I've informed our base.
00:12:50You have permission.
00:12:51We'll prepare for your ship to land.
00:12:55We'll trouble you as little as possible.
00:12:58I'll switch you to control.
00:13:04Attention.
00:13:05Landing personnel on flight deck.
00:13:08Attention.
00:13:10Stand by to receive unassisted landing.
00:13:13Repeat.
00:13:14Stand by to receive unassisted landing.
00:13:21It's not a ship.
00:13:41It's not him a ship.
00:13:42Of course you realize we must make our own repairs.
00:14:02I want you to know how much we appreciate your assistance.
00:14:06If we could work this way, north and south combined.
00:14:11Think of it, the advantages.
00:14:13I agree with that.
00:14:15To its eventuality, Captain Torrance.
00:14:20If the attitudes of our governments could somehow be changed.
00:14:25You know how politicians work.
00:14:28Always years behind science.
00:14:30What brought you into our radius?
00:14:32It was unintentional, I assure you.
00:14:35We were flight testing a new synergic curve pattern
00:14:41to lessen fuel consumption after orbit.
00:14:43Well, we've also been working on that.
00:14:46Oh, if only we were allowed to exchange data.
00:14:51They're politics instead of science again.
00:14:54Still, I believe we should try to instigate a new research exchange.
00:14:59We've all thought that.
00:15:00For a long time.
00:15:02Well, maybe if we took the initial step,
00:15:06Mars is our immediate project.
00:15:09Mars?
00:15:11Now that you know.
00:15:15Spaceship Mercury.
00:15:20Have a look at it.
00:15:23This is the culmination of all our research.
00:15:28How close are you to its completion?
00:15:32Well, the ship itself has been ready for quite some time.
00:15:37We've just been waiting for the proper solar conditions.
00:15:41And your time plan?
00:15:42Yes, how soon?
00:15:44Countdown has already been set for tomorrow.
00:15:46If there are no drastic solar changes,
00:15:49we'll proceed with the plan.
00:15:51Any questions?
00:15:52May I ask you?
00:15:53We've already imposed enough.
00:15:55The hour is going late.
00:15:57Good luck on your flight tomorrow.
00:16:00Good night, Doctor.
00:16:03Until later.
00:16:04Good night.
00:16:04Good night.
00:16:05Good night.
00:16:15We had no indication of this.
00:16:17It may leave us no alternative.
00:16:20Don't take too much upon yourself.
00:16:26Yes, Dr. Martin.
00:16:27Come in.
00:16:30I hope you don't mind this intrusion.
00:16:33No, not at all.
00:16:33Be seated.
00:16:45After all these years, we can finally do.
00:16:48A discussion I've looked forward to.
00:16:50I've long admired your writings.
00:16:53That's an honor, coming from you.
00:16:56Dr. Martin, I've observed your ship.
00:17:01Anything unusual?
00:17:03It's designed for deep probe, very similar to our Mercury.
00:17:08What is the typhoon's flight range?
00:17:10As one scientist to another, I'd like to discuss the entire matter.
00:17:15But you must realize that it's entirely out of the question.
00:17:20Captain, do not attempt the flight.
00:17:22Regardless of what you believe, we cannot take any unnecessary risks.
00:17:26General, I can't accept defeat.
00:17:29If your ship is malfunctioning, you'd be merely throwing your life away, and with it the entire project.
00:17:34I understand your determination, but I must order you to return to the base.
00:17:38We cannot turn back now.
00:17:40Captain Torrance.
00:17:42Captain Torrance.
00:17:44Captain Torrance.
00:17:48Then, we've reached an impasse.
00:17:51I can only express my regrets.
00:17:54No more so than I, Dr. Gordon.
00:17:57I understand.
00:18:00Dr. Gordon.
00:18:02Good night.
00:18:03Good night.
00:18:04Good night.
00:18:11It's decided.
00:18:12We leave at once.
00:18:13For North Hamas?
00:18:14No, for Mars.
00:18:16I think our friends will be somewhat surprised.
00:18:20Captain, that's not our main concern at this time.
00:18:23Our repairs may not hold up.
00:18:24I went over the entire system, and it proved out perfect.
00:18:29You checked it.
00:18:32Remember, my friend.
00:18:34What this could mean.
00:18:36I realized this situation completely.
00:18:39But do you?
00:18:59Good evening.
00:19:01Good evening, Paul.
00:19:03We came to work on our ship.
00:19:05You need any help?
00:19:07Not at the moment.
00:19:09Maybe tomorrow.
00:19:10Good evening, Paul.
00:19:43All personnel clear the flight deck without delay.
00:19:47What was the reason for doing that?
00:19:49Someone might get hurt in a blast-off.
00:19:52Too late now.
00:19:54Full power.
00:19:55Full power.
00:20:21It's the North Hamish.
00:20:49Greg, someone's been hurt.
00:20:52There he is.
00:20:57It's Paul Clinton.
00:20:59Let's get him inside.
00:21:00Is he badly hurt?
00:21:01I can't tell.
00:21:17I can't tell.
00:21:56The flight pattern of the typhoon is directed for Mars.
00:22:02They weren't ready.
00:22:05You're so right.
00:22:06But they were obsessed.
00:22:10How are you feeling?
00:22:12Not too bad.
00:22:14Just shaking.
00:22:15I'll be fine by flight time.
00:22:18Paul.
00:22:22Doctor, you wouldn't replace me now.
00:22:26Not at this point.
00:22:28I have no choice.
00:22:31Nancy, tell them I'm all right.
00:22:33The x-rays reveal a minor concussion has resulted.
00:22:38I'm sorry, Paul.
00:22:40We can't take the chance, Paul.
00:22:46Craig will replace you.
00:23:02I'll watch you step.
00:23:15I'll watch you step.
00:23:15Over here, Nancy.
00:23:20Craig, I'm so happy Dr. Gordon chose you for the first flight.
00:23:24Mars, Nancy, think of it.
00:23:26I am.
00:23:27Before you know it, I'll be back with you in South Hamish.
00:23:29Craig.
00:23:34Please don't let me act like a little girl now.
00:23:37You won't, I'm sure.
00:23:41Final call.
00:23:43A medallion with our names on it.
00:23:47Pin it on the flag you place on Mars.
00:23:52I will.
00:24:13All right.
00:24:32The End
00:25:01The End
00:25:29Begin our relay
00:25:30Yes, Doctor
00:25:35This is Earth Control
00:25:36Calling Project Red Planet
00:25:40Standby to Checkpoint Communication Relay
00:25:46Relay communication is in effect
00:25:51Control ready
00:25:56Are you ready?
00:26:00I'm ready, sir
00:26:08Attention
00:26:12Countdown red
00:26:14Recline, switch to auto
00:26:20Begin our relay
00:26:21And we'll be right back to the end of the day
00:27:52Temperature reading?
00:27:530.934. Rising.
00:27:55That checks.
00:28:02Say, what is this thing?
00:28:04Good luck charm?
00:28:06Something like that.
00:28:07Or pocket money for Mars.
00:28:09It's a medallion.
00:28:10For history.
00:28:12So what is that?
00:28:14An asteroid?
00:28:15No.
00:28:16What's so interesting?
00:28:17I think it's an old friend of yours.
00:28:20Come here and see for yourself.
00:28:34To discover a satellite.
00:28:36That was my first dream.
00:28:38We'll see you on the way back.
00:28:41It's incredible.
00:28:43Remaining in orbit so long, huh?
00:28:47It opened the way to outer space.
00:29:00That's final, General.
00:29:02Signing off.
00:29:05If South Hemis were to get to Mars before we did.
00:29:10But they won't.
00:29:12Our ship's perfect.
00:29:14Even the General admitted.
00:29:17Our Hemis might have suffered for it.
00:29:26Something's wrong.
00:29:28Our course is changing.
00:29:29Huh.
00:29:30It couldn't be.
00:29:32Our angle is perfect.
00:29:33Can't you understand?
00:29:34I said it was changing.
00:29:35It won't hold.
00:29:39It could be wrong.
00:29:42Check it again.
00:29:43I have.
00:29:44Twice.
00:29:45Being pulled away by a powerful magnetic field.
00:29:49It's the sun.
00:29:54The directional rockets.
00:29:56Won't they correct it?
00:29:58They might if we fired all of them.
00:30:02We've no choice.
00:30:04Fire them.
00:30:05I intend to.
00:30:06Just hope it's enough.
00:30:07Get ready.
00:30:14Positions.
00:30:17Recline.
00:30:30Let's monitor Earth.
00:30:32Yes.
00:30:36And continue density reports.
00:30:38Stand ready for checkpoint on third cycle.
00:30:43Spaceship Mercury passing through nearest proximity of sun's periphery.
00:30:47Transmit your readings at 30 second intervals.
00:30:51Before I return to unified control,
00:30:54I want you to know that our latest figures coincide with the reports from the space station.
00:31:00And the first flight to Mars continues in perfect trajectory.
00:31:04There it is, Craig.
00:31:08Mars.
00:31:09What a magnificent sight.
00:31:12It looks like it's just waiting for us.
00:31:19A distress signal.
00:31:25How could that be?
00:31:27Unless...
00:31:29Spaceship typhoon calling.
00:31:31Emergency.
00:31:32We are being pulled into the sun.
00:31:35Our auxiliary rockets lack the power to hold.
00:31:38I repeat.
00:31:40We are being drawn into the sun.
00:31:43No power to hold.
00:31:45The magnetic radius.
00:31:48Is there anything we can do?
00:31:51Check position.
00:31:54Within radius point one four.
00:32:00Could we possibly get to them?
00:32:03We have the power.
00:32:05I realize that, but what about the fuel?
00:32:09Course on typhoon.
00:32:11Yes, sir.
00:32:13Two lives are at stake.
00:32:15And we can save them.
00:32:17But the project...
00:32:19The project is for man.
00:32:22You won't change your decision, sir?
00:32:24We can't.
00:32:25Ready.
00:32:27Recline.
00:32:44Prepare for retro.
00:33:10This is our last signal.
00:33:11Our rocket power has failed.
00:33:13To withstand the sun.
00:33:18Noise.
00:33:21Has contact been made?
00:33:22It's meteors.
00:33:24Being fired from the sun's heat.
00:33:26The pole.
00:33:27Prepare yourself to resist the pole.
00:33:30Oh!
00:33:32We have failed.
00:33:34Our eagerness failed us.
00:33:36We needed more time for preparation.
00:33:52No more.
00:33:57Calling typhoon.
00:34:00Calling typhoon.
00:34:02This is spaceship Mercury.
00:34:04Can you hear us?
00:34:06This is radio typhoon.
00:34:08Listen carefully.
00:34:09It's too late to help us now.
00:34:11For your own safety, don't even try.
00:34:14Continue on your course.
00:34:20You see?
00:34:21They want a sparrow.
00:34:23Radiation up.
00:34:33It's hopeless.
00:34:35I don't blame you.
00:34:37I wanted it too.
00:34:42Don't torture yourself.
00:34:44It's all over.
00:34:45I don't blame you.
00:35:11Attention, all personnel, Project Red Planet, report to the main control room immediately.
00:35:18Attention, all personnel, Project Red Planet, report to the main control room immediately.
00:35:24All stations are red alert. I repeat, all stations are red alert.
00:35:44Mercury?
00:35:45Yes.
00:35:49What's the other object?
00:35:52We're not positive yet. It created a change of course. We're waiting now for some word.
00:36:10Speed set.
00:36:14Lock control.
00:36:17Get ready.
00:36:44I'm all set.
00:36:45Hatch open.
00:36:47Be careful.
00:36:48Have your weight balance.
00:36:50I checked the pressure.
00:36:53Remember.
00:36:53Yes.
00:36:54You'll have only a matter of minutes to effect the transfer.
00:36:59I'll make it.
00:37:02Just hold her steady.
00:37:03It's all okay.
00:37:04I'll make it.
00:37:24Be careful.
00:37:26It's all right.
00:37:29You know what I mean?
00:37:30It's all right.
00:37:32You can't wait.
00:37:32Do you have any trouble.
00:37:33I'm not sure.
00:37:33You can't wait.
00:37:33You can't wait.
00:38:00Captain, pick him up.
00:38:03I think we have only a few more minutes.
00:38:52I think we have only a few more minutes.
00:39:10It will be all right.
00:39:12Just try now to relax, okay?
00:39:14Now, let's get this thing off.
00:39:17Here.
00:39:19Now, how do you feel, huh?
00:39:22Better?
00:39:24Let me help you, Dr. Martin.
00:39:41Craig, the figures were right.
00:39:44Could we make it back to Earth?
00:39:49We've consumed too much of the fuel.
00:40:17That's Ancora?
00:40:20But the chart doesn't show the terrain.
00:40:23But we have to land there.
00:40:28Listen, Craig.
00:40:29Yes?
00:40:30Emergency fuel must come by rocket from South Hemis.
00:40:36What could have gone wrong?
00:40:39Not even a signal.
00:40:42Could it be ionosphere blackout?
00:40:44I doubt it.
00:40:46But perhaps if we...
00:40:49Sir, from Spaceship Mercury.
00:40:52At last, some word.
00:40:53We lost contact after receiving the message.
00:40:58Our fuel supply is exhausted.
00:41:01The landing on Mars is no longer possible.
00:41:04We'll attempt to land on Angkor,
00:41:07which is in the Martian orbit.
00:41:10If we're successful,
00:41:13we'll require a fuel rocket.
00:41:27you in the Martian orbit.
00:41:31And you'll be in the Martian orbit.
00:41:32When you see a plane,
00:41:32you'll be in the Martian orbit.
00:41:33What?
00:41:35Did you see a plane?
00:41:38You'll be out of time.
00:41:38What?
00:41:40It's a plane.
00:41:41It's a plane.
00:41:51What?
00:42:45Nothing over here.
00:42:46I've finished checking over the ship, Doctor.
00:42:49Any damage?
00:42:51Everything appears in order.
00:42:53Then we can leave if we get the fuel.
00:42:54Probably the rocket is already on the way.
00:42:56Come on, get ready.
00:42:58We'll have to set up the guidance antenna to receive the fuel rocket.
00:43:04Come in, Doctor Gordon.
00:43:07Commander, the fuel rocket launching has been completed.
00:43:10We can rescue them, if their guidance antenna can land the fuel rocket.
00:43:15Then the outcome is in their hands.
00:43:17Let's go.
00:43:19Let's go.
00:43:19Let's go.
00:43:21Let's go.
00:43:24Let's go.
00:43:44Let's go.
00:43:57There seems to be a magnetic interference.
00:43:59Could it prevent you from landing the fuel rocket, Doctor?
00:44:02Yes, but I believe the condition is diminishing with the planet's rotation around Mars.
00:44:06Look.
00:44:29Beautiful.
00:44:32If the planet does absorb the sun's rays.
00:44:35Then life must exist then.
00:44:37In all probability.
00:44:40Let's go.
00:44:42Let's go.
00:44:43Just think.
00:44:44A new world is almost within our grasp.
00:44:58Imagine the discoveries we could make.
00:45:01And we almost got there.
00:45:04If you hadn't sacrificed for us, you might have attained your goal.
00:45:07A life has more value than any goal that man can strive for.
00:45:27Let's go.
00:45:28Let's go.
00:45:30Let's go.
00:45:36We have two reasons, Craig's forthcoming marriage to the nicest girl I know and the
00:45:43rocket-wringing fuel. Success to both.
00:45:47Success to both.
00:45:55It's strange, any other time a fuel rocket couldn't compare with Nancy, but now I'm not
00:46:01so sure. Subdue the universe, but woman will always subdue man. Now, to business. The guidance
00:46:09antenna is still directing the rocket. It should be in our landing range presently. Let's
00:46:18get ready to receive it.
00:46:42The angle of entry is perfect. Switch to automatic landing control.
00:46:58It should indicate reversal stage. Does your reading check? Yes.
00:47:05The end of the day is perfect.
00:47:08The end of the day is perfect.
00:47:34Members of the Space Agency, our observatory reports that the pilotless fuel rocket has crashed on Angkor.
00:47:46Everything possible is being done to establish further contact with our astronauts.
00:47:51As soon as we have any word, you will be notified. Thank you.
00:48:10Craig, you haven't given up hope, have you?
00:48:12No.
00:48:13We're alive, and that's what's important.
00:48:16You're right.
00:48:35The transmitter's strong enough, the signal should be received.
00:48:38It will be.
00:48:39Certainly, seldom have I seen a man more ingenious than Dr. Gordon.
00:48:52No, sir. Not yet.
00:49:13No, sir. Not yet.
00:49:20Have you tried every wavelength?
00:49:22Yes.
00:49:27The distance and time element, everything checks out. I know I could make it.
00:49:33Please report from flight station.
00:49:34We are still unable to make contact.
00:49:37A piloted fuel rocket is our last course of action.
00:49:40I strongly recommend Paul Clinton as the man best qualified to undertake the flight.
00:49:51This is not an easy decision for me to make.
00:49:55A piloted rocket ship still requires additional testing.
00:49:59The commander could very well be right.
00:50:03But still, if there is some way to be certain that our men are still alive, I'll leave the decision
00:50:11to you, Paul.
00:50:14There's no other way.
00:50:16I have to go.
00:50:18No.
00:50:32You won't go.
00:50:33You want to go.
00:50:34Yeah.
00:50:40You won't go.
00:50:41You won't go.
00:50:44You won't go.
00:51:07Mercury, calling Earth.
00:51:11I'll keep trying.

01:00:10Cray will be here shortly.
01:00:12He's a hero.
01:00:13I'm just so excited.
01:00:15I can hardly believe that.
01:00:17They are so very kind, children.
01:00:19I'm so thrilled.
01:00:20This is my aunt.
01:00:22Oh, I've never been so happy and proud.
01:00:24Oh, I'm just too excited even to speak.
01:00:28Attention! Here is the latest bulletin on the spaceship Mercury.
01:00:32Landing will take place within the next several minutes.
01:00:35We are standing by to give you a detailed description of this historic event.
01:01:08Take her out!
01:01:25The End
01:01:26The End

01:03:08Craig.
