Spider Ship  

 Not all dreams can come true. But it is difficult to determine which dreams this applies to when your dreams are at the limit of imagination.
                                  .

The beginning of a 1930s Star Wars type Adventure begins when the Spider Ship sweeps Buddy and Alura off into Outer Space

With this spaceship, we leave the realm of the ‘technically feasible’ and enter the realm of ‘fantasy’ where many of the spaceships we see on the silver screen today exist in all their glorious splendor. Why bother with fantasy spaceships?  Because they inspire, they open up the mind, they make you ask, “What if.”  But impossible spaceships are not just the domain of today’s SF Sagas, they have been with us a long time.
                                      .
One of the most imaginative, unusual, and visually interesting little spaceships to have ever graced the pages of a national newspaper was the enigmatic little Spider Ship.  Originating from outside our own solar system, it was propelled by some mysterious means that was never quite explained.  However, it was capable of taking, Buddy and Alura, the two teenage heroes of the Sundays Buck Rogers Comic strip, on a cosmic scale adventure. 
                                         .
In it they traveled across the dimensional barrier to a land with two suns, a place where days were many years long, a planet where their Spider Ship was smaller than a real spider, and finally back to our own solar system. 
                               .

The Adventure begins on a planet far far away from anything they've ever known.

                                      .
Of interest was an adventure that they had upon their return. It was to land on a planetoid called Vulcan. No refugee from Star Trek, the planetoid Vulcan was claimed to have been discovered by Verrier and in 1930 was still thought to exist. However, its existence was never confirmed.
                              .
There they discover a race of people who live their lives completely by remote control, manipulating their world through robots.  In order to get home our two heroes have to fight an army of robots. 
                        .
If you’ve a interest in today’s fantasy spaceships and imaginative SF, here is an excellent example of a fantasy spaceship from a long time ago and a galaxy far, far away.
