Intro

Each episode was introduced by stirring brass and woodwind fanfare (uncredited, but probably composed by Ray Bloch)[1]) while the camera panned over a scientific laboratory. Then Truman Bradley showed a simple scientific experiment which was usually related to the topic of that week's show. This article does not cite any references or sources. ...


Due to the limited budgets and intense production scheduals of ZIV episodic television shows, most of the scientific, and not so scientific aparatus appears again and again as props with many different functions. It's great fun watching the clumsy levers, dials, boxes and lights blinking and spinning in their supporting roles.

Later, the astronomer refuses to believe the couple saw anything more than an optical illusion. To prove the existence of UFOs, the reporter films a documentary of wittnesses, while the astronomer promptly demonstrates scientific explanations for each wittnesse's sightings. But the mysterious stranger has dropped off a photograph at the astronomer's lab- a photograph of our solar system taken from deep space.

1-37 Sound of Murder 7 January 1956 Howard Duff The senior scientist on a top secret government project is found murdered in a hotel room.

The project's brilliant engineer is arrested and imprisoned for the murder, and for espionage, because a number of wittnesses heard him on the telephone asking the senior scientist for a meeting in the hotel room shortly before the murder took place. To prove his innocence and his theory of how the crimes were committed, the accused engineer constructs a voice synthesizer. He uses it to have himself released from prison by duplicating the voice of a government official over the phone. The engineer also calls the other members of the team to the government official's office and uses the machine to trick the guilty team member into confessing.
1-38 Operation Flypaper 14 January 1956 Vincent Price, George Eldridge, John Eldridge, Dabbs Greer, Kristine Miller A group of scientists from many disciplines are met in secret conclave to develop a method to mine the Earth's oceans. But as they begin to share their theories and devices, the materials suddenly vanish. They notice that not only equipment and files are gone, but time has also disappeared. A brief conversation begun at 11 pm ends over an hour later, with no awareness of the interveining time having passed. A spy has found a way to move among the scientists at will and take what he wants without anyone perceiving him. In an effort to capture this thief, "Operation Flypaper" is quickly set up. A false lab is outfitted with hidden cameras and microphones, and technicians begin simulated work on another piece of vital equipment. As the room is observed, the occupants suddenly freeze in mid-stride. A man enters with a device that can put subjects into total sleep with no after effects, and begins to steal the equipment. The observers reveal he is being watched, and in a rage he shatters his machine and is captured. The man was a brilliant but paranoid scientist who wanted to be recognized for contributions to science and was stealing mining ideas and equipment he would later "invent". Ironically, his sleep machine, now totally detroyed, would have insured his place in scientific history as the greatest method of surgical anesthesia ever invented.
1-39 The Other Side of the Moon 28 January 1956 Skip Homeier, Beverly Garland, Philip Ober. A picture of the dark side of the moon finds men from other worlds at work on its surface.
