Trivia
The large white chamber shown in the lab is actually a thermal/vacuum chamber which simulates the vacuum of space and the temperature extremes encountered in orbit (-300 to +300 degrees F). The chamber is still used in testing satellites prior to launch.

Goofs
In several instances the strings controlling the movements of the alien creature are visible.

Yes, Venus is closer to Earth than Mars

I'm only writing this review to give a little education, in response to mikesinclair. At their closest, Venus and Earth are 38 million kilometers away. Meanwhile, Earth and Mars come only 56 million kilometers apart.

As far as this episode, I found it a delight. We love watching the older episodes of The Outer Limits on the Comet channel, and seeing a young William Shatner was a treat.
