Castle - The Wrong Stuff (2015)

"Castle and Beckett don spacesuits and enter a Mars simulation to figure out how an astronaut ended up dead on Castle. "The Wrong Stuff" is the 16th episode of the show's seventh season."

Never watched the show so the above doesn't mean much to me but you don't get to a seventh series without doing something right.

Thanks to Tim for spotting this.  We think these are the spacesuits from Ascension (2014).  The helmets are not.  Have these been around somewhere else?  Lets play.......thoughts, guesses and confirmations into the comments, please.

Up in the Air (2009)

I do like a George Clooney film and even though these images are deleted from the finished cut and from a dream sequence as best I can tell, I do quite fancy giving this a watch.

Thanks again Tim

Adiós querida luna (2004)

Three astronauts are sent on a mission to destroy the moon.... what more could you need to know than that. Oh, it translates as; Goodbye Dear Moon and it's an Argentine sci-fi comedy film directed by Fernando Spiner back in 2004.     Thanks Tim. Steve

Murder In Space (1985)

I like Michael Ironside but not enough to sit through this twice.  Poster is alright though isn't it.

Major Matt Mason (1966)

Major Matt Mason was a line of action figures created by Mattel. Mason was an astronaut who lived and worked on the Moon. When introduced in 1966, the figures were initially based on speculative design information found in Life Magazine, Air Force Magazine, Jane's, and other aviation and space based periodicals. Later the line transitioned into the more fantastical realms of the fantastical.

 

Just a fraction too young and born the wrong side of the Atlantic to have had the pleasure.  Would have loved them though.

Holiday Inn (1973)

Promotional image cashing in on the space race, I presume, as did just about everybody else through the back of the 60's and into the early 70's.
