Film Trivia

The music played on piano after the derelict ship explodes is "Part One: Introduction" from "King David", aka "Le Roi David," composed by Arthur Honegger.
Incident with the old terrestrial ship practically in accuracy corresponds to a fragment from the novel by Stanislaw Lem "The Magellanic cloud".
