Walt Disney was a true visionary, and his most far-reaching vision examined the future. During the 1950s, his investigation into space exploration and the wondrous opportunities and challenges of space travel not only came alive in several Disneyland TV shows, but helped create strong public support for The United States space program. Go back in time to the beginning of the future and enjoy four episodes and a theatrical short that delve into the mysteries of the universe and space travel – Man In Space, Man And The Moon, Mars And Beyond, Eyes In Outer Space, and Our Friend The Atom. You'll also get a rare look at Walt's last film, "EPCOT," in which he reveals his concepts and plans for the Disney World and EPCOT projects. Other not-to-be-missed features include a special interview with noted futurist and author Ray Bradbury. Featuring exclusive introductions by film historian Leonard Maltin, this is a timeless collection from generations past for generations to come.Featuring exclusive introductions by film historian LEONARD MALTIN, this is a timeless collection from generations past for generations to come.Includes: Man in Space (Ward Kimball, 1955-TV)Man and the Moon (Ward Kimball, 1955-TV)Mars and Beyond (Ward Kimball, 1957-TV)Eyes in Outer Space (Ward Kimball, 1959)Our Friend the Atom (Hamilton Luske, 1957)EPCOT (No Director Credited, 1967)The Optimistic Futurist (Jeff Kurtti, 2004)Marty Sklar, Walt, and EPCOT (Jeff Kurtti, 2004)
