John Mitchell visits the Department of Physics at Leicester University where research is being carried out using x-rays in space.
We see:
John Mitchell introducing the item with a piece to camera.
A scientist looking at a computer.
B/w archive shots of a German v-weapon (supplied by NASA) and a dog being prepared for space travel (supplied by Pathe). We also see people working on the satellite Ariel 5 which had equipment from Leicester University (probably also NASA material).
Mitchell interviews Professor Ken Pounds about the various space projects being carried out at the university including the x-ray telescope and Ariel 5. He concludes with an odd question about the future likelihood of time travel.
