You can find the classic theme music by David Rose, from MEN INTO SPACE on the album "Double Impact" by Buddy Morrow and his Orchestra, on RCA Victor Records in Stereo, 1960.

I love this classic sci-fi TV series! Set in the 1980s, it's too bad they didn't film it in color. Also it is odd that NASA was not involved in this show, since it was all about what they were planning. The U.S. Army, Department of Defense, and Air Force were advisors on this program. A Lewis J. Rachmil and Ivan Tors Production, with space concept art by Chesley Bonestell. Music score by David Rose. Released by United Artists Television. A ZIV-TV Production. Directed by actor Richard Carlson.

I had one of the toy space helmets based on the show.

I feel like a baby compared to these other commenters. I’m 58. I like the comments I’ve read and am glad to be among the sci-fi nerds who can write nice comments. I don’t enjoy reading negative comments. Thanks to those who use the comment section appropriately.

"MEN INTO SPACE" lasted one season on CBS {September 1959- September 1960}. 38 episodes were produced; this one, "Christmas on the Moon", was originally telecast on December 23, 1959.

Wonderful story, directed by movie icon Richard icon! I clearly remember the Christmas of 1959 at Loring A.F.B., Maine. My brother, Rob, and I were "riding" our spaceship, a brand new toboggan setting on the couch next to the Christmas tree. I had my brand new Colonel McCauley space helmet, and Rob had his ray gun that spewed sparks. Youngsters in space at the threshold of the Space Age.

As 71 yr old sci-fi nerd, I remember this series ! I remember scenes where they’re walking in magnetic shoes on the hulls of the Willy Ley -inspired conical spacecraft hulls ((verrry slowly) and having a variety of adventures on the Moon, including one where our hero got caught in a moon landslide and took shelter in a tiny cave with an extra large oxygen cylinder) . Weaving references to God in the plots were common, as was the incorporation of church bell tones into the final notes of theme songs. Imagine the culture shock for a young sci-fi freak when ….The Outer Limits came along !

This is what they used to do with David Crosby.

@23:46- I turned 3 years old that day. January 11th.🤷🏽‍♂️

I watched this show as a kid.......i am 75 yo now. I was always interested in aviation and space. Series like this inspired me to pursue a career in aviation. I worked on apollo 67-71......later sold aerospace components for 12 years. I now believe i will to see man land on mars.....courtesy of spacex and elon musk....

Written by the same writer that wrote Creation of the Humanoids, another ahead of its time film, thanks for posting!

Thanks for all the comments. I remember catchings bits and pieces of this as a child, as we did not get the channel that played it. It was great to find and upload these so all of us SCIFI people can enjoy the liberating science of the 1960's and 1950's.

ESP., 64 years later. Wow!

Happy Heavenly Birthday Leslie Nelson 💔💔😢😢

sure wish Hollywood would come out with a movie or program that honored God like this film did

And since the 1990s News media resembles exactly this. So does western government.

From 1971 definitely ahead of it’s time. Good film although there was one point at the beginning where he mentioned being in a hospital I half expected someone to say what’s that to which the answer would be it’s a big building with lots of people but that’s not important right now but that was circa 7 years away too.

Hallelujah! There are thirty seven more episodes.

I'm bummed... I thought this was a full-length, but it was sure good while it lasted. Kind of A Charlie Brown Christmas tree. I sure wish Hollywood would come out with a movie or program that honored God like this film did.

Remember this series well...

Oh this is bad…….good quality stream though….thank you 🤭👵🇺🇸🇦🇺

…this was a great series…yes, full of propaganda BUT positive propaganda the country needed after sputnik….it still inspires that special “can do” feeling…I’ll bet they had a ball making these shows…thanks for the upload

We are all in space right now.

Very prescient. Some 15 years or so later, for 3 days, 3 human lives were the most important thing in the world.

I was amazed to see this was written by IB Melchior, of "Angry Red Planet" fame, which was about as far away from real science, as this is close to it!

I have to smile at the way everyone saunters around in the low gravity environment. Something we learned about since.

I remember it well from child days. Loved it and never missed an episode. Sadly, cancelled early. Then cameth "Star Trek".

That works: it's the reason I posted it - Leslie as a straight actor, not a comedian.

It is not the san Carlos river, it is the Gila River

I hate dams , are creepy and a secure death 💀

It's the Gila River not San Carlos

angie dickenson’s hilariously ridiculous shave job on the senator would have cut him to ribbons in reality lol.

Must be your first day using a drone. Shitty camera work and flying

I saw this movie when it came out.... this is by far not the quality what you see on the screen... but look at content - this was in the 70's, and medical scientists are now trying to make 'human-pig' organs...????

The 'force' was with you, for darn sure! So glad for the happy outcome!

I knew about the "Return to Home" feature, but I thought it crashed, due to the erratic flight path. I held a small hope that it would return, but was amazed as I drove up and saw it sitting there as if nothing had happened. I flew it again this morning, and it handled perfectly.

It would of been the strangest feeling coming back to the park to find it sitting there. I think I would of been scratching my head thinking how'd that happen. I'm looking to get a Phantom soon. They look like great fun.

You should of bought a lottery ticket that day. Bet you had sweaty hands after that. Lol
