Satellite in the Sky (1956)





 
Satellite in the Sky is a 1956 British film. It was directed by Paul Dickson with special effects by Wally Veevers. The film was the first British science fiction film to be shot in CinemaScope and colour.  What more could you need to know?
 
Great Britain launches the 'Stardust'; the first manned spaceship with a deadly nuclear “tritonium” bomb attached to it.  O-ho!

  2. I would imagine they are real world pressure suits. They are very similar to the ones seen in The Net (1953) Still doesn't stop them looking goofy though
