Lost in Space STS-117 B9 Robot Presentation Video

This is a video we produced for the June 2007 launch of STS-117. During preflight activities, Irwin Allen's wife Shelia donated a B9 to the KSC Visitors Center.

[@nerinavshrestha3338]

Lost in space was part of my childhood . No doubt this show may seem illogical , but bear in mind this was a great feat in those days. This show single handedly ignited curiosity about space exploration among millions of children. Of course not all of us could go to space, but .....the watching the show is very nostalgic. Please upload all episodes, especially featuring Penny.

[@ntvypr4820]

That robot was the absolute COOLEST robot ever designed or to appear in Sci-Fiction. For ME anyway. When you look at it closely, examine the blueprints and what all it was supposed to be able to do both on and off screen it just BTM! (Blows The Mind) Especially for early 1960's thinking and with the limitations of what they had to work with. Robert Kinoshita just knocked it out of the park. IF I could have had a Jupiter 2 & B9 robot model as a kid I'd have been.. there is no scale for measuring the happiness. I did get one of those weird looking REMCO robots. Don't get me started.

[@Nathan-jq1uw]

Yes, the 1965 Remco robots were god-awful representations of B9. I swear the toy company rushed that to production and didn't bother to try producing a robot that actually looked like our hero.

[@robertmartinez1645]

But were repainted and used in an episode.

... I had one or two when I was young... ...and many years later in the 1990s when they did the big screen movie, I had both versions of the Robot toys (the original and movie version) that they put out as merchandising related to the movie... ...come to think of it, in the 1980s I had a small wind-up version of the B-9 that was from Japan, Matsudya was the name of the company that produced it, if I remember correctly... ...they also produced a vinyl model kit in 1/8 scale, labeled Robot YM88 for some reason... ...(as a six year old kid I just thought that robot was the COOLEST thing)...

[@ntvypr4820]

I was born in 1960 so LIS when I began to understand it in 66(?) was far more watchable to my child mind. Like a cartoon but with a really neat spaceship and robot. I remember one episode when all these weird creatures were released I was so afraid I hid behind the couch and watched it through my fingers. I couldn't grasp ST in it's first run though I remember trying to watch it. It came and went before I was ten. But in reruns after school ST finally clicked to me and my friends in the early 70's. And it's been ST ever since. Even turned up my nose at Star Wars as a kind of ST ripoff to me at the time. LIS I still love for the B9 and J2 but beyond the first season and half it gets hard to watch to me.

This was my all time favorite. Wednesdays were the longest day of the week. Seemed like the clock stopped. Then the hour from 7:30 to 8:30 PM flew by.

Lucky. I wanted to watch Lost in Space in the worst way but we lived in Alabama at the time. For some stupid reason, they wouldn't show it.

...some of the music for the background and atmosphere of the show was composed by Robert Drasnin... ...a young John Williams (of Star Wars fame) composed the theme for the first season...

[@mitchellmelkin4078]

Narrow Gate, John (Johnny) Williams wrote much more than the two themes, including nearly all of the compositions that were heard during first season episodes and used extensively thereafter. There were a set of videos pn YT (they may still be around) that broke down the brilliance of Williams' work, in the cues for "My Friend, Mr. Nobody", by someone who really knows his musical chops. They're worth seeking out, as they (and the erudite comments accompanying them) make an already moving episode, even more poignant, in retrospect. No, Williams never won any awards for his work on LIS, to my knowledge, certainly not any Emmys, though he was most deserving of consideration. Honestly, I'm not sure when awards for music scores began to be part of the Emmy Awards, though I find it very dubious that the Academy of that day, would have even given thought to so honoring a SF program, no matter how exemplary the music. Interestingly, from what I've gathered, Williams has never publicly commented on his contributions for LIS (he had done TV work before it), almost as if he were repudiating it, or distancing himself from being associated with the show, which is truly unfortunate.

Fixed the problem with "hyperdrive". They had it but couldn't navigate safely without a navigational anchor at the destination system...Hapgood was a test pilot who violated protocol and used his test hyperdrive beyond mission parameters and disappeared setting the program back decades. Sorry, can't do anything about Tybo the talking carrot or "passing through the Zenian galaxy in the night". It's interesting that it really doesn't take much to get the show into sense if one drops the goofy kiddy episodes. Season 1 cries out for just some minor tweaks like hyperdrive above. It gets some things remarkably right, like remembering they're on a different planet that acts and evolved differently. They could also have remembered Maureen was a trained microbiologist with PhD.

[@mitchellmelkin4078]

Warren Hoffman, Yes, and it does pose an interesting paradox of sorts. For the Robinsons, they barely survived with him, but they definitely wouldn't have without him. Although a speck of dust, compared to ST, I do find it interesting to be attentive to the show's canon. There are a number of interesting tidbits to catch and file away, if you've a mind to. To say nothing of retconning certain elements, such as a plausible reason for the marked change in Smith's personality, aside from Irwin Allen's encouragement of Jonathan Harris' creativeness in staving off his worry that Smith's character would be soon eeeliminated. I've read widely that the impact of being directly exposed to the forces at play in the Jupiter's liftoff, and his subsequent presence during flight, initiated a physiological process that, over time, engendered a kind of sundowning effect on Smith. While certainly nothing more than head canon, I've seen it referred to enough, that I feel that it does hold some palpable currency.

I seem to remember that there was one episode where the robot appeared to battle all of the little robots. I wish that I knew what the name of that episode was because that battle has stayed in my mind for years.
