We’d take the path to Jupiter

October 28, 1962
Gerry and Sylvia Anderson third attempt at frightening children with Supermarionation Fireball XL5 premiered in the UK, on this date. Remember to stick around for the end credits to sing along with the theme!

Although Supercar had been shown in syndication, this was the first Gerry AndersonSupermarionation series to appear on US network television (NBC, on Saturday mornings, between 1963 and 1965). This was their last black and white puppet TV series.
