    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Former Guns n' Roses guitarist Buckethead, a big fan of the TV series, has made several references to it within his music career. This includes naming both his 1994 LP album and his early band "Giant Robot" after the titular character. He often plays a rendition of the TV series' theme song during his live shows and also shows stock footage from the TV series in the background of some of his live shows on a large screen behind him, if the venue that he is performing in is capable of doing so.
    • Alternate versions
      Voyage Into Space (1970), a "featurization" of five of the 26 episodes of the TV series (specifically, episodes 1, 2, 10, 17 and 26) that was edited to fit a two-hour time slot (including commercials), is occasionally shown on TV.
