... For Posterity

Storyline: Two prospectors find a flying saucer. Once they board it, they are whisked countless light years away to a world similar to Earth populated by beautiful women. It's explained that the saucer was really a time machine and they were brought to Earth in the future. Radiation had made the men infertile and eventually die out. Only women remain and they need to get Earthman from the past to help repopulate the world. The eager men agree. They then wake up back at their camp in the modern day. Thinking it was all a dream they notice some of the women's roses on their sleeping bags.

Storyline: Professor Lathem gets injured during an experiment in space flight during one of his college classes. After he recovers, he is warned by the college Dean to not engage in these experiments again. Lathem resigns and builds a new rocket engine in a barn he purchased out in the country. After he kills the nosy farmer Hiram Jenkins, he's arrested.

The now mad Lathem doesn't realize that he is being strapped to an electric chair to be executed for the murder.

Storyline: A Captain and his crew land on a weird planet whose surface was like green felt......a planet that swallowed the ship and crew, then spewed them out of its interior.....like vomit. As the ship took off, the whole crew had the answer to a concern that they all had been arguing about: that, even though they thought man was the highest form of evolutionary structure, they had just been proven wrong.....by the planet itself!
