      I agree about the sounds. If you think in terms of retro future alternative evolving realities, the Allen reality (pop satira put apart) is more human, more mundane, in a certain sense it is much more realistic than the Roddenberry's reality -- which is a much more dated simulacrum of real (Soviets versus Americans and UN Federation versus Klingon etc). Star Trek is a fabula (fable) aiming some moral and Lost in Space is a fairy tale aiming nothing in particular, nothing moral most of time and nothing truly new about the (and supposed well known) ultimately human soul.

    • @LoneBrowncoat
      @LoneBrowncoat Рік тому

      Technically, sound means something is vibrating, therefore from an engineering standpoint, it should be checked out, just to see if everything is operating within specified parameters.
      Otherwise, an advanced vessel like the Jupiter 2, should be eerily silent {or the Spindrift from LOTG, even the Enterprise} like so many UFO observers have reported.

      Yes and yes to those two comments 1701echopapa. The Enterprise was like a futuristic peacekeeping aircraft carrier (hmmm, what a coincidence), while the Jupiter Two was like a futuristic family runabout; maybe a 1997 version of the (then) current '65 Mustang convertible. Instead of put the top down for a family run to get ice cream on a hot evening, jump in the family space ship for a quick visit a neighboring planet!!

      This video is a little more realistic showing the power and speed needing to be maintained for quite a while to reach escape velocity in order to be free from a planet’s gravity. Often we would see that as soon as space is visible, you are “free”. Mr. Allen often threw out already known scientific facts in favor of drama, (like comets giving off heat like a sun hurtling through space like a flying sun, or supernovas flying through space like a comet)!!

      @@thefurrybastard1964 Consider - WE can spot it because we're watching it in higher resolution - MUCH MUCH higher resolution - than the absolute BEST OF THE BEST TV available at the time! We watch in such high resolution that we can spot the FILM GRAIN used! LOL!! :D
      I'm pretty sure even the slight hints you mentioned would've gone completely unnoticed on any Television of the period. And I can assure you - I never saw it even in reruns about a decade later (1975) - the tech was still about the same.
      That's also why the re-release of Star Trek (TOS) was remastered with better special effects and with better digital "Matte" effects and traveling mattes. They felt they HAD to. Lost in Space depends much more heavily on planet-bound adventures and character moments. Star Trek certainly also delivered on good characters - but by comparison, they depended more heavily on visual effects to tell stories - and the effects were "Good Enough" for the time.
      But ask a Trek Fan who started with Next Generation to watch TOS with the original comparatively "janky" special effects? Well... let's be honest - Trek fans (and I am one) got SPOILED by the 80s movies and the 90s special effects. SPOILED I tell you!
      That's why the 1998 LOS movie was so chock-a-block full of effects shots. I'm sure there was a big faction behind the scenes that felt they had some catching up to do. But really - they could've just stuck with the original design for the Jupiter 2 - or something with the same shell, but sized larger scaled to fit all the cool stuff inside believably - and I think fans would've been happy. That was really the only nitpick I ever had with the Jupiter 2 - TOO SMALL on the outside! It had to be part TARDIS to fit everything in there! LOL :D

    I was very young when the series was originally on television. My mom wouldn’t let me watch because she thought it would give me nightmares. I remember once my mom was shopping with her sisters and my dad and I were at home. I tried to fib my way into staying up to watch the show. I almost got away with it until my mom came home and wanted to know why I was still up.
    In the 70’s the show was on during the summer in the afternoon. I loved the watching, I wanted to be Will Robinson and have all his adventures. I constantly would draw the Jupiter 2 and all of the other “Lost in Space” vehicles.
    In the early 80’s, I began working at an expensive restaurant in the suburbs. One afternoon the owner said his parents and brother in law from out of town would be dining at the restaurant that night, and he wanted me to take care of them. I asked what his brother in law was in town for. He answered that he had some type of show to attend. He told me further that his BIL used to be an actor when he was a child, and the show was a sci fy convention. “Maybe you’ve heard of him, his name is Bill Mumy”. I nearly had a stroke. I calmly told him yes, I knew who he was. “They’ll be in around 7:30”. I WAS GOING TO GET TO MEET MY CHILDHOOD HERO.
    They arrived on time, I was introduced to Bill. I tried to keep myself in check. I’d met lots of celebrities at work, but never anyone I was a secret fan of. He turned out to be charming and friendly. By the end of the night he was calling me by my name. The evening ended and they left. Little did I know that over the next several years, Bill and I would become friendly enough that he would ask for me to take care of him when he came in for lunch or dinner when he was visiting.
    I never asked him any thing about the show, I wanted it to be casual, as if he were any other customer I took care of. One night he asked what my favorite episode was. I told him and said I hadn’t watched it in years since I didn’t have cable. Several weeks later when I came home from work, a package was waiting for me. In it was a VHS tape, an 8 x 10 autographed picture, and a note telling me to “have fun watching the tape”. He had dubbed my favorite episode, his favorite episode, and the pilot onto the tape for me. I couldn’t believe how thoughtful he was.
    A few years later he was in town for another appearance. He asked if I was free the Sunday of the show. He wanted me to meet him at his hotel, have breakfast with him, ride in his limousine to the show, and attend the show as his guest. I was more than flattered, but my boss had me working a private party and wouldn’t let me off. I had more contact with him through the years, but after working there over 10 years, I felt it was time to move on. I’ve always been thankful of the times I talked to him, it was a part of my life I’ll never forget. And by the way, I still have the tape.

    One Of the coolest things to me was that the Jupiter2 as well as the Seaview and flying sub miniatures from voyage to the bottom of the sea actually had to be flown or maneuvered on wires .Therefore the miniatures actually had to move thru air or water and not the poor quality you get filming a stationary object on a blue screen stage . The ability to actually film the object and background simultaneously
    made a big difference in the quality of the imagine filming a person with blue screen and then adding a background.the lighting never seems to match and there was a slight reduction in quality by overlapping film on film and the more layers added the worse the image degraded.The amazing quality of LB Abbott and the Lydecker brothers still brings a smile and a sense of wonder.Thanks for this wonderful video!!😀😀😀

    As an "Old-Geyser", I still believe the Jupiter 2 IS the coolest looking space ship? As a kid I fashioned one (with an upper and lower "View -Port") then with the 2 pie pans stapled together I epoxyed a "mini" pie-pan (containing a "Cox" solid propellent rocket engine) to the bottom, then launched it from my parents patio with the use of my "Big Rail Work Train's" power transformer. It jumped 5 feet off the concrete, then, turned sideways and spun around in mid -air until the rocket engine came loose and tore It apart. What a memory. I waited until my dad left for work. My sister thought it was amazing.

Your idea makes sense until they reach a certain speed. Going straight up would not be aerodynamic and would generate incredible heat on the top of the ship from friction and resistance with the atmosphere. Now in space, without friction, it would make sense, but would be awkward to film the side flying sideways across the screen and they would need the viewport on the “roof” to see where they were going!
