Sources and Credits: The vast majority of information on this website was provided to the webmaster directly by the son of the late William Cayton and Mr. Fred Ladd (Laderman). The original master films were thought to be lost, but were recently re-discovered after more than forty-five years. Only 12 years old at the time, the original voice actor "Kerry Mark Joels", who played "Jimmy", has also contacted the webmaster to provide input. He is now Dr. Joels, who was Curator at the Smithsonian Institution's National Air & Space Museum, served as consultant to The White House, was technical script consultant for the James Bond film "Moonraker," co-author of the Space Shuttle Operator's Manual, and worked with NASA on Project SkyLab to name a few. With the contributions of the late Bill Cayton's son, Fred Ladd, and Dr. Joels direct input, this is now considered to be the most authoritative website related to The Space Explorers animated 'Feature' films on the Internet.
Other references: The Space Explorers film, Macmillan Audio Brandon Films Catalog (1975-76), The Internet Movie Database (IMDB), The Berkeley Art Museum & Pacific Film Archive, The Library of Congress, The Hayden Planetarium, and NOVA's "The Elegant Universe". Mike Stein, Editor of Filmfax Magazine.
Thanks in advance: To Jerry Beck for researching the series on his Cartoon Research website. To Mark Wade for his Astronautix website which served to inspire additional research on these two artistic men and their early animated films. To Mike Simmons of the Mount Wilson Observatory for some technical corrections. To Forrest Patton for his detailed information on the musical film scores used in The Space Explorers. To Kevin S. Butler for researching and correcting the dates, channel details and station call-signs of the baby boomer TV shows that aired the series.
Webmaster comments: As of
now, there are still
only 4

content references to The Space Explorers feature film or serialized version. If you know of
others, please forward the URL address link to the webmaster. Echoing the above
comments... this is a true classic!
