When worlds collide was a poster for the early starship construction, out in a field, but all we had was a crusty 500x368 copy. Many years later, a 1450x1080 copy finally made its way to the usual place.
When the world is going to end, smoke em if you got em.
It still looked amazing in the 80's when lions 1st saw it.
Old lion was more impressed by the vintage aircraft. The closeup hovering was quite impressive. The UH-12 N8132H was powered by its original 210HP Franklin engine. Later versions had the same 300HP Lycoming O-540 as the R-44.
It looked pretty overloaded with the 3 of them, but it actually had more power than the 150HP O-320 & 180HP O-360 powered R-22.
Old lion pondered how the kid got there. He must have been strapped down by parents who long since died.
What would lions do if the world was going to end like that? A lifeboat in the middle of the ocean with some means of propelling it to shore once the fireworks ended. They did say the planet would be annihilated though.
Obviously inhabited already & waiting for a sequel.
What a fun scene to make, with a full size reproduction of the interior enhancing the illusion of spaceflight.
It was always very matter of factual, by movie standards. Their calculation was 44 animals averaging 159lbs. That was pretty skimpy by today's standards. The book might have included more details like all of them getting as skinny as possible or an emphasis on kids.
That racetrack takeoff was as fascinating to young lion as star blazers. Young lion surely drew a few pictures of that spaceship.

That camera makes them look so close.
Who will win Utah war 1? Jerryrig's sustainable empire or Patey's attempts to burn all the natural gas in Utah valley.
The real zillionaires like Patey, Jerryrig, Rockwell, Greenspun, Neistat, Serhant don't talk about their wealth at all, besides a rare home tour. Meanwhile, the legions of zillionaire commenters endlessly brag about their wealth. Something doesn't add up.
A lot of the bragging commenters are just scammers trying to get responses to whom they can sell a get rich quick scheme.
