Broadcast originally in Melbourne on 18 May 1960, a kinescope recording was made of the broadcast and shown in Sydney on 27 July 1960 (it is not known if it was also shown on ABC's stations in Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth). [1][2] PlotFour men (two Americans, an Englishman and an Australian) are training in Australia to become astronauts, and are preparing for the first manned space launch, for which only one of the men will be selected. Medical officers think the men are mentally and physically perfect. However one of them has a physical defect.[3] Cast
ProductionDon Houghton was prompted to write the drama after the announcement of the Mercury Seven. Houghton said "For the sake of the play I hope any attempt to put a man in space will not be made before May 18," when the show was being broadcast.[4] Houghton said the drama was not science fiction, but rather highlighted the short step ahead of what was actually happening with space exploration. The play posed the question, "what sort of man is an astronaut?"[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=IWsRAAAAIBAJ&sjid=xsUDAAAAIBAJ&pg=5696%2C1937548|website=The Age|date=12 May 1960|page=3|title=Astronauts on TV}} 2. ^{{cite news|newspaper=Sydney Morning Herald|title=Television Guide|date=25 July 1960|page=14}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=IWsRAAAAIBAJ&sjid=xsUDAAAAIBAJ&pg=4547%2C1980257|date=12 May 1960|website=The Age|title=Wednesday Television|page=TV Guide Supplement}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=AJ5VAAAAIBAJ&sjid=tqkDAAAAIBAJ&pg=6123%2C3379558|website=The Age|date=21 April 1960|page=15|title=Tv Drama About Men in Space}} External links
