This weekend I was dredging through the U-Tube dungeon and wound up in Germany. Some more scraping and I found an English dub of Perry Rhodan: Mission Stardust. In book form it is a cereal story. 25 books just to get the alien craft to land on Earth.
Sonic defense devices may be needed for opening theme noise (music).

YouTube's German-dubbed copy of the film is a bit better quality. But it's dubbed in frickin' GERMAN!

Hard to believe this piece of ripe Italian cheese came out the same year as 2001: A Space Odyssey.

A "cereal" story? Sounds pretty flaky to me. Or is it just corny? Wink

Perry Rhodan is a weekly German Science Fiction Pulp Magazine series that has run uninterrupted since 1961, with over two thousand five hundred issues released so far not counting reprints, books, and spinoffs.



It was originally founded by Karl-Herbert Scheer (1928-1991) and Walter Ernsting (1920-2005), two German science fiction writers, and initially only conceived to run for thirty volumes. It is being developed and written by an ever-changing team of authors.



The series begins with the first manned moon landing (in 1971) led by U.S. Space Force Major Perry Rhodan. However, things do not go as planned and the astronauts discover a stranded alien spaceship from a star system called Arkon and its crew who need medical help. The realization that mankind is not alone in space and access to the aliens' advanced technology lead to the (not entirely trouble-free) political unification of Earth under the eponymous hero-protagonist Rhodan, first expeditions into the cosmic neighborhood, and the eventual founding of first colonies on other planets, all the while trying to keep the more powerful established factions out there (especially the decadent Empire of Arkon, which had dominated local space for twenty millenia) from finding out just where the newcomers hail from.

Over time (over the course of the entire series so far, more than three thousand years pass in-universe), Earth and its colonies evolve into a major power in their own right while other space-faring races lose some of their traditional influence.



It is revealed that all the various human races of the Milky Way galaxy - such as Terrans and Arkonides (who had founded a short-lived colony called Atlantis on Earth roughly 8,000 B.C.) - are closely related and technically part of one species. They are descendants of the Lemurians, the First Mankind, who fled Earth 50,000 years ago during a galactic war with an alien species and settled in Andromeda.

Several major outside threats are faced and eventually defeated, alien races are discovered and befriended as allies, then a successful invasion of extragalactic origin forces the Terrans to flee along with their home-world. That event kind of marks the turning point towards events of more 'cosmic' significance and contact with high-tech civilizations and cosmic entities far ahead on the Kardashev Scale...and that only covers the issues up to about #700-#800.



Published in Germany The main pulp series since 1961 in up to 6 editions at the same time. 2751 issues as of May 2014.

— Atlan is a spinoff pulp series, with a few hundred books published.

— "Silberb??nde" (Silverbooks) a re-release of the main series. 122 books till now contains up to pulp 1037).

— "Blaub??nde" (Bluebooks) a re-release of the Atlan series. 42 books in the moment. Not to be confused with the older "Blaub??nde" a re-release of the "Silberb??nde" by a different publisher. Oh, and they were also republished by another publisher as "Gr??nb??nde" (Greenbooks).

— "Planetenromane" (Planet Novels), 415 books published from 1964 till 1998. Some are canon, many are Alternate Continuity stories.

— Perry Rhodan Neo is a Continuity Reboot that starts in 2036 and (instead of 1971) since controlling massive spaceships with punch cards was too much Zeerust). The reboot has 69 books as of May 2014.

— ebooks

— audiobooks (nearly 200)

— music albums (around 40)

— 9 computer games. 5 for Atari 2600, 4 for Windows and one for smart-phones, Windows and Mac

— a magazine

— a role-playing game

— a strategy board game

— a comic (with re-release), 140 issues will go on hiatus after issue 141 in September 2013.

— many other things like calendars, fake stamps, artbooks, etc.

And there was NEVER a movie! Especially not one made in 1966.

The American release was published in The '70s in a paperback book format by Ace that contained other material, making it resemble a magazine; after this series was cancelled a few more issues were directly sold by Forrest J. Ackerman. This lasted up to issue #145 (German numbering).



A few later attempts to bring the series to English never took off.
