The film, partly meant to impart an anti-nuclear message, was first released in Germany under the name The Silent Star, and then in Poland, entitled First Spaceship on Venus. It tells the story of the discovery of a peculiar alien item that leads to a staffed mission to Venus. Once on the planet, the team learns that Venus's populace has been destroyed by a nuclear mistake. The group must then return to Earth and impart this crucial knowledge lest the same mistake be repeated. (Echo Bridge Entertainment)
