A beam of light emerges from the bottom of a jungle lake that's surrounded by lush, light green plant life. The light starts out pink, than turns into yellow and then blue.
Another beam of light in the same colors and size emerges from the bottom of another jungle lake. This time the vegetation is a darker green and a few more colorful plants are visible, including a tree with pink flowers and an orange tree.
Another similar beam of light shines out of another another jungle lake. This time, the figure of a nude woman is kneeling on the shore, looking at the light.

The Star Trek Battle Manual by Lou Zocchi from 1972, later withdrawn for legal reasons, would become the basis for the long-running Star Fleet Battles tabletop wargame.
Space Patrol, a sci-fi tabletop roleplaying game published by Lou Zocchi's GameScience in 1977, heavily influenced by Star Trek.
RIP Lou Zocchi, master of weird dice & creator of the d100 Zocchihedron; also a key figure in #StarTrek games history, writer of the 1st (unlicensed) ST tabletop wargame that evolved into Star Fleet Battles + publisher of Space Patrol, arguably the roleplaying game that set the tone for ST RPGs. π
It's a wild ride!

Tonight on The Security Hazard Show
Gerry Anderson learned the craft of filmmaking in the editing department on a number of films during the 1940s and 50s. One of the most unusual pictures from this era to carry the name "Gerald Anderson" is 1954's DEVIL GIRL FROM MARS. Find out more on tomorrow's episode of The Security Hazard Show!
Love it when someone is introduced to the world of Ray Harryhausen and is so impressed, they immediately want more!
Can relate! π½

The Security Hazard Show all about The Protectors: It Could Be Practically Anywhere On The Island
In 1969, The Man from UNCLE's Robert Vaughn starred with his pal Sherwood Price in a production of The Odd Couple on stage. A few short years later, Vaughn would get to make his directorial debut on The Protectors and he chose to make a comedy no doubt inspired by this. It did not go down as well...

Joe was on the floor presenting his HB produced bible program. I was too scared to talk to him except for asking for his autograph.
