Ray Bradbury Hundred Fifty
1,539 wordsA common theme in science fiction is outer space. Many of Bradbury's stories take place there. As critic Wayne L. Johnson observes, For Bradbury, space is not merely a stage upon which stories of the future are played, it is what the Great Plains were to the pioneers, not just a frontier but a symbol of the future for the human race (49). If space serves as a symbol of the future for the human race, the story Kaleidoscope has a large amount of symbolism. In this story, the crew of a spaceship is...

Viking Probe Second Expedition Movie
770 wordsThe Book, the Movie The Martian Chronicles, written in 1950, was produced in 1979 as a made-for- television mini-series. As with most adapted screenplays, the movie differs from the novel. These differences are not that drastic and do not circumvent the overlying message of the piece. The first noted difference is the opening scene of the movie. It begins with the landing of the Viking probe on Mars. This change is possibly an attempt to explain away the results of the Viking probe. The audience...

703 wordsSpace: The Final Folly In 1947 the world had dreams of green aliens with big eyes. In 1969 the world turned on their televisions to see man take their first steps on the surface of the moon, since then it has been all down hill from there with NASA and the space program itself even now in 1998. The space program is no longer on the minds of the American people, whether it is from lack of interest or the many blunders, both reasons are understandable.
