Re: Zero G in TV; Re: S:AAB USS Saratoga specs

Was that "Men into Space"?  Thats the only one I can find in my copy of
the
"Sci-Fi Channel encyclopedia of TV Science Fiction".  The book gives
just a
small taste (hint really) of the show.	The discription is only 3
sentences.
I guess having knowledge that it even existed is better than having no
info
whatever.

The book goes on to say the show had 38 black and white 25 minute
episodes.
US premiere: Sep 30, 1959.  UK premiere: July 9 - Oct 1, 1960
