Of interest is the fact that the American dub quite naturally omits a long section where an American scientist fights with his own government over an expedition to Venus before defecting to the East, [[SarcasmMode who of course never let bureaucracy and nationalism interfere with the pursuit of knowledge]]. With this lengthy UsefulNotes/ColdWar subplot gone, the American version manages to be less dated than the original purely by accident.
