Jupiter II Walkthrough

Someone spent an enormous amount of time assembling this computer-generated digital tour of the Robinson’s spaceship, the Jupiter II.

Just a pity they had to continually loop the theme song music for the duration. By a few minutes in you’re ready for the funny farm. Best watched therefore with the sound down.

This animation lays bear the whole tardis-effect (to borrow a description from one of Sci-Fi’s other shining lights, DOCTOR WHO) of the Jupiter II – compact from the outside but expensive with multi-levels on the inside.

This 3D walkthrough also reveals a major design fault of the ship. A futuristic vessel designed to transport and accomodate six space colonists (three male – three female) + what ends up being a seventh permanent passenger in the form of stowaway Dr Smith and it only has one bathroom?

Forward to the three minute twenty second mark of this video if you want to take in some low-tec bathroom design amidst the interior of an ultra-high-tec kitted out spaceship.
