In this episode we could gasp how Irwin Allen's mind works, it goes without saying Irwin used to be recycle old ideas for a specific purpose, saving money, this episode almost a fax simile of the original feature-film whose premise starts the series, just replacing Walter Pidgeon for Richard Basehart, all crew members reminder in the show, all those red sky at Antarctic coming from the original one and the stock footage, this way that Irwin Allen thought.
The episode Seaview is at Antarctic for survey mission when they realize that the ice is melting, soon as can they surface and figure out the sky in burning process totally in red color, thus Admiral Nelson quickly reports it to Pentagon for further info, he head to there on Flying Sub to a board meeting, then Nelson exposes his plan, the burning atmosphere is raising the heating faster the southern Earth is in dangerous, when the high temperature reach at equator half of Earth will collapsed and millions going to be dead.
Nelson needs act faster, he must head in a specific latitude and longitude nearby Australia where the Seaview should hits the target through an atomic missile on the atmosphere in order to disrupt the core of the atmospheric phenomenon, however the ONU's council demands that three physicists back with Nelson to right time take a final decision, it's means that no longer Nelson has a final word about this matter, as always happen that has someone hidden among them that will undermine Nelson's plan to ensure a new global order!!
Thanks for reading.
