Jupiter 2 at the Sci-Fi Air Show
Спорт
Back in 2008, one of the original Star Wars film model makers from ILM, William (Bill) George, and crew manage to create this magnificent short film of a fictional Sci-Fi Air Show... including the Lost in Space JUPITER 2!! Remember that this is the original short film made, and there have been improvements since that time. You may visit the site to view the actual models used, and their true sizes at ( www.scifiairshow.com/about ) . For it's time, what an amazing job they did.... and I must agree that the J2 is especially amazing to see! As I stated, Bill continues to improve upon the Sci Fi Air show in quality and what ships are shown. Visit the site and check it all out.

For kids, the J2 was an ideal home. It was safe & secure, made of cosmium steel and with a forcefield "fence" for extra protection. Even the windows had blast shields when needed. Inside it was a clean & orderly retreat from a world that children don't fully understand nor can deal with. Plus, Mom (Maureen) was always there and Dad (John) was always ready to defend it, whether with bare hands or laser rifles and pistols. Both were loving and wise.

The Jupiter 2 was great because it was the ultimate RV, a Winnebago to the stars. You'd travel someplace new, park on the surface, unpack and set up a little camp area outside the door, then break out the smaller vehicle to do some sightseeing in the vicinity.

It has always been my favorite. My mom made me a birthday cake of the Jupiter 2 for my birthday when I was 5 or 6. That's always been my favorite cake. The ship setting in a small diorama of a planetary landing. It was so much fun I was sad when we had to cut it.

The favorite TV show of my childhood when I was growing up in England in the 60's. Loved the show and of course the Jupiter 2, which was such an amazing spaceship. It instilled in me a life-long love of space and astronautics.
This is so very well done that you wish that someone had gotten the money together to buy all of these famous scifi props and made a museum for all us fans.
I love that show, when I was a kid, I played hours and hours, with my block friends pretending to be lost in space!!! what a days!!!!
What a concept, a scifi air show! I want to believe!!!
My favorite part of the Jupiter Two is the flight control dome on the bridge. Seems like Dr. Smith was always trying to divert the ship's course in hopes getting rich.
An actual museum with full size models of all these SCIFI ships and other props that you could actually tour like old battleships and submarines would be awesome! I think a lot of people would love it, you could make an entire theme park on this premise.

One of my all time Favorite shows. Of all the things I saw on the show, the one I would like to have today would be the washing machine. In one of the shows, Miss Robinson dumps a hamper of clothes in. Closes the lid and presses a few buttons and in three seconds you hear a beep. The clothes are clean, folded and shirk rapped. Ready to put away. What a time saver.
I remember two episodes that featured the "Jupiter Two" close up with people exiting and entering it! "The Derelict" and "A Hostile Planet"!
I love the heck out of the Jupiter - even though its design could never allow for the 3 deck space, nor storage for the Chariot or the escape pod. Still its a fun TV show. I bet hardcore logic-oriented scientists lost a lot of sleep worrying how people could buy into the big lie - LoL
Wow! Very impressive! Of course, my fave ship after the Jupiter 2 really is the Eagle, so I especially appreciated the nod.

The space 1999 eagle is my idea of what a space utility vehicle would be. The military has a vehicle called a HEMTT (pronounced HEMIT), which is a general purpose transport vehicle. You could put any kind of shelter, or payload on the back. In the space 1999 series, there were different modules that the eagle could carry, like cargo, personnel, mobile labs etc. Practical and modular.
I have a feeling that Guy Williams and Jonathan Harris are in heaven having a chuckle together..
The biggest mystery for me is, what special sound effects were used to generate the different stages of the Jupiter 2's engine. From powerful sound of liftoff from earth in episode 1, The Reluctant Stowaway, which also used an anti-gravity drive, used to escape the gravity pull from earth. The anti-gravity drive was never meantioned in the show, and the 250 mega watts of power definitely had an unpleasant experience for Dr. Smith. The glow around the Jupiter 2 at liftoff was produced by the anti-gravity drive. The special sound effects was well done also when the Jupiter 2's engine went through the 4 stages of power before lifting off without the use of the anti-gravity drive. This video was Absolutely Awesome!!
Ahh, the beloved Jupiter 2! Always ready to whisk a 10 yo boy away to wherever his imagination could take him and safely bring him home....

I was 6-8 yo during the TV presentation and I could never understand how many things could be kept in that spaceship. It was evident that the size of the ship (compared with the cast) in outdoor scenes, was the same of an ordinary truck, It was a time of innocence in television without correct notion of proportionality. But however that's my favorite serie of childhood (Time Tunnel also) and what made me study engineering.

I thought the same, and, though I still do, since encountering a geodesic dome house, I found that a circular structure seems much smaller from the outside than it actually is because it immediately begins to slope away from you to either side no matter at what point you are standing. That circle of the J2 would have covered a lot of ground, if the prop had been complete. My main problem was that the lower level seemed just as high as the upper, even though on the miniature, it appears noticeably lower. Then, in the 3rd season, they actually gave it a third level where the reactor core was ensconced.

What great shows and a great era to be a kid. I'm so fortunate we had shows like this and all the other show we all loved. Running home from getting off the bus to watch these shows. Space Giants, Ultraman, Johnny Socko, my goodness so many great shows back then.

Wow, the robot spider-walker from Johnny Quest in the opening scene, nice little cameo there. Yeah, I wish there was such a thing as a sci-fi airshow, I personally love the concept of this that everything was built as a real aircraft in the Sci-Fi Airshow universe instead of models and mockups as was the case in real life for all these classic films and TV shows. Personally, the one I'd really like to have a ride in would be the Orion III from 2001 (AKA the Pan-Am Space Clipper), to LEO and back, have to confess it's one of my favorites. Maybe you could do a video on that one sometime? Cheers, Brendan O.

Best kids sci fi show ever. Most imaginative hands down. The ship clearly has zero room for a lower deck but they always show the family on the ladder or elevator going there. All my best memories of pure imaginary fun were from these many great episodes. The one in the shrinking robot they were stuck inside of....the one where dr. Smith and will could see earth from a window in a traveling space junk ship, and had to choose either saving Penny...or getting back to Earth by stepping through the port as time ran out....i still have strong memories of all these episodes...a part of me forever.
That's so weird how they're greenscreened over it. At least they lit it fairly well, but it's still pretty obvious. Acting like they're standing in a parking lot with this thing but you hear like.. cable access commercial quality audio with the small room echo. lol

To capture a childs imagination they had the perfection dimensions for the ship as it encourages more vivid imagination and bewilderment how a ship so small could be so large and roomy inside.
I watched the show in 1967 back in Brazil but still love it. The Jupiter II along with the Enterprise are my favorite spaceship due to their unique design.
Munsters was another great imaginative show from this era.

Just before the start of the second season in 1966 my father bought a Zenith 25 inch color console TV, which was fantastic because Lost in Space was going to be broadcast in Color that year. The Zenith had a 25 inch TV, a stereo record player that had speeds from 16, 33, 45 & 78 rpm's and an AM & FM/Stereo radio. I remember it cost $800 in 1966 (almost $6,000 in 2017 dollars). That was the first time I ever heard of or saw an FM radio and in 1966 there were only 2 FM stations available in our area and they both played only Classical Music, but that was about to change.
Quinn Martins The Invaders, Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek,( The Enterprise and the Shuttle craft) Irwin Allen's Voyage to the the Bottom of the sea,( the Sea view and the Flying Sub) The Time Tunnel, Lost in Space, (the Jupiter 2) and Land of the Giants, ( The Spin-drift), Gerry Anderson's Space:1999 ( Moon base Alpha and the Eagle) I remember them all on TV in the 60's and 70's. I also remember the spacecraft 20th Century Fox used on Planet of the Apes........ Growing up and being part of those TV shows was an experience. They weren't OVERLY COMPLICATED and confusing as today's movies and TV shows are. the were simple, practical shows that made it easy for the audience to identify with. If only they could bring that concept back to TV or the theaters, it might help for sure.
Wow! Someone built a full-size Eagle? Very nice. I'd like to see that one close-up and also the Jupiter 2.

All this takes me back to when I was 10 years old and watched the first episode of "Lost In Space" in glorious black and white on our families old Admiral T.V.. The thing is that the Jupiter II was a spacecraft that appeared a lot larger on screen then it appears to me now. After all, where was the Chariot and the rest of their equipment stored? Still, allot of the technology that made the spacecraft work was really ahead of it's time in thought and planning. For example; The use of suspended animation to preserve the crew during a long, long flight, the fact that the ship was computer controlled and the addition of a robot, who was there to intervene during the flight, or later in ground planet bound activities. Seventy-six years, the time it would take to travel to Alpha Centaur,i is a long time. Can you imagine the type of individuals it would take to make such a journey? And it's a good thing that Major West had a pretty daughter in the form of the commanders daughter to grow closer to. A fact, that interestingly enough, wasn't lost on me.

Why is the J2 is so popular? It was the perfect home! Safe & secure: with the force field up and running and esp with the metal panels drawn over all the windows, NOTHING could get in to you. You were safer than a turtle in his shell! Next, it was always clean and orderly inside: no mess, no chaos. That also made it peaceful to your mind. It had lasers handguns, a first aid kit, flashlights and fire extinguishers near the main exit, so you were prepared for any emergency. Next, the galley was always stocked with food. It had cool things, like radar/scanner, seismograph, a "radiotelescope", its own science laboratory, intercoms in each bedroom, those cool Murphy beds -- too many things to count! Plus, if you didn't like someplace, you could (when you had fuel and things were all working), just get up and fly away to someplace better. Last, but not least, mom was always there! She made the J2 a warm home, a loving retreat, a safe sanctuary from the world.
Brilliant. Thanks for the memories.

4:30 "...two paper plates..." I made a number of iterations of that. One or two of the final versions had a threaded bolt and a domed chrome lugnut through the center of the ship to keep the upper and lower sections from collapsing. It was fairly intricate and it took me a minute or so before I remembered the details of the actual construction.
Laughed muh ass off at that last "UFO" saucer photo from Chickasaw Falls. It was the Jupiter 2 as Chickasaw Falls was the town where they ended up when they went back in time that one episode.

ikr. Unfortunate that those "classic" TV shows have so much cut out of them on the TV stations showing them to accommodate those very annoying and overly long commercial breaks nowadays.
I never watched the show Lost In Space, but this video got my attention because I actually witnessed an aircraft similar in size and somewhat similar in appearance to the Jupiter 2 back around 1993 in eastern Pennsylvania. To make a long story short, from a distance of about 75 yards, I saw a saucer shaped aircraft hover and fly away over the course of at least mile at no more than 30 mph while I was traveling by car. I believe it was man made because the center of the aircraft had windows evenly spaced around the center that were shaped just like the passenger windows on a commercial airliner. It also had a rotating ventilator looking thing on the roof and a small red or orange light on its rear. Seeing this thing proved to me that someone has aircraft that operate with alternative propulsion systems. By the way, I know this aircraft was not a fake because it had moving parts - the center of the hull with the windows rotated slowly and it had a spinning ventilator looking thing on top. I also witnessed it travel a good distance over many obstacles (including a river) before it slowly gained altitude.
