Bon voyage.

It's about to hit the cloud layer.

She's moving well.

At any moment now.

Black clouds. Lightning.

I don't like the looks of this.

I'm turning control over to robot John.

Ahead steep mountain.

I am going up.

Wow, close call.

We're watching on the location-finder.

The area is strange. This is truly a prehistoric planet.

- Prehistoric planet is right!

- Hey, there's a hard, level spot.

Right.

Attention, Sirius. Your landing location

is square 73.

We're now dropping our beacons.

Landing three hundred meters

southwest of square 73.

Uh-oh, there's water beneath us.

We're drifting.

Commander Lockhart!

Commander Lockhart, what happened?

Marsha.

Don't be too worried.

The signal was only broken by the horizon.

I'm sure they've landed.

In an hour, when we pass in orbit,

we'll contact them again.

Yes, sir.

Is there anything further you'd like me to do?

Not for now.

We might as well all get some rest.

Sherman.

Kern.

Answer.

Kern!

Sherman!

Kern!

Are you there?

It's hopeless.

We've no choice.

Let's break orbit.

We'll prepare the ship.

You'd better bring her about and plan the course to find it.

Marsha.

Marsha, are you listening?

Yes, Commander?

It's likely they're in trouble and need help.

The responsibility's ours.

Yes, sir.

Listen to me.

If something should happen...

Don't you be afraid.

I won't.

I promise.

Shall I sign off now?

You can help us most...

...if you will be brave and keep faith.

I will.

Hello, Sirius!

This is Professor Hartman speaking.

Hello, Sirius!

This is Professor Hartman speaking.

We wish you to feel free to discontinue the

expedition at your own discretion.

Don't take unnecessary risks.

Your lives are too valuable.

All the nations of Europe are eagerly

awaiting the results of your exploration.

We wish you all success.

Switch.

Lunar 7.

My men.

The ship.

Are just about to break through en route.

The plan is to land approximately the plot area 73.

This should put us in position to contact Sherman

and Kern or to give them help if needed.

My people are proud and privileged to be...

...chosen members of this expedition.

The first on Venus' surface.

Our special thanks to all people of Earth.

Well, my boy...

All we can do now is wait.

What do you think they'll find, doctor?

Your guess is as good as mine.

Let's just hope that they arrive there safely.

We're landed.

Voila.

Don't begin celebrating yet.

Ooh.. Oh!

Is our level okay?

Yep, there it is.

On the button!

Boy, it sure feels strange to have weight!

Yes, it does seem strange.

That's sure.

But it's nice and solid.

Well, I don't know about you fellas...

But I'd like to see Venus.
