The Jupiter II from "Lost In Space"

In these screen shots from the TV series, the top right and bottom two photos were shot on location at Trona Pinnacles, near Ridgecrest, CA, using a model and forced-perspective filming technique. If my memory serves me well, Grumpy Old Guy, one our fine photographers, posted some of his photos from Trona Pinnacles a few years back. Visiting the site is on my bucket list.
