Meteors

A rare Soviet documentary film from 1951, directed by Pavel Klushantsev. It explores the history of humanity’s study of the universe, from ancient astronomy to modern understandings of the solar system, examining the structure of the cosmos, the planets, and advances in scientific space research.

This film consists of three parts. The first dramatizes the life of the founder of Soviet astronautics, Konstantin Tsiolkovsky; the second describes the development of rocket technology; and the third visualizes the future with enactments of the first manned spaceflight, spacewalk, space station construction and humans on the moon.

Science fiction/documentary film about man's voyages to the moon.

Soviet cosmonauts land on the planet Venus and find it teeming with life, some of it dangerous.

Like the previous film Luna produced by Klushantsev, the film Mars was created at the intersection of educational science films and science-fiction. It consists of seven pieces, which tell (based on scientific understanding of the 1960s) of the physical conditions on planet Mars, the possibility of life on Mars and what forms it might take, of Martian canals and "seas" of the Red Planet. In addition, the film includes the director's fantasy hypothetical forms of life on mars, and of the exploration and colonization of Mars in the near future.
