Journey to the Far Side of the Sun

Gerry Anderson, the producer of the popular science fiction puppet shows Supercar and Thunderbirds produced this live-action science-fiction fantasy, directed by Robert Parrish. Roy Thinnes stars as Colonel Glenn Ross, who is assigned by Jason Webb (Patrick Wymark) to accompany John Kane (Ian Hendry) on a mission to explore a newly discovered planet on the far side of the sun. They are placed on a spaceship in suspended animation, awaiting their arrival on the planet. But three weeks into the mission their ship crashes. Kane dies, but Ross is rescued by a mysterious ship and brought back home. Sent back to see Webb, he tells Webb about the mission, but Webb doesn't know what he is talking about. But when Ross sees a newspaper in which the writing is reversed, he realizes that he is actually on the newly discovered planet and that the planet is a mirror image of Earth. ~ Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide
