Trivia
The first of many The Twilight Zone (1959) episodes (including I Shot an Arrow into the Air (1960), A Hundred Yards Over the Rim (1961) and The Rip Van Winkle Caper (1961)) to be filmed on location in Death Valley. Unprepared for the terrible conditions they would face, the crew suffered extreme dehydration and heat exhaustion and director of photography George T. Clemens even collapsed, falling from a camera crane while filming continued.

Goofs
Apparently, there was at least one other living thing on the planet besides James Corry. In the final screen shot, a bug can be seen flying in from the left, going to the right and circling up and over to the left again.

Quotes
James A. Corry: Alicia and I'll climb into that ship of yours, and we'll - we'll look out the port, and we'll give it all a big kiss goodbye.
Adams: Who, Corry?
Captain Allenby: Oh, my dear God, I forgot her.
Adams: He's out of his mind. Who's Alicia?
Captain Allenby: A robot.
James A. Corry: She's a woman.
Captain Allenby: Corry, she's a robot.
James A. Corry: She's a woman! She's gentle and kind. Allenby, she kept me alive. Why, if it wasn't for her, I'd have been finished. I'd have given up.
