The stories written by Stanisław Lem are full of these real life struggles and authenticity. The 1963 Czechoslovakian film Ikarie XB 1 was inspired by his book The Magellanic Cloud, as in the year 2163 a crew of cosmonauts sets to search for life in the Alpha Centauri system. On their way they encounter an abandoned space ship from the 20th century full of nuclear weapons, this being a relict of unfortunate times… The movie made a huge impression on the critics and inspired a generation of filmmakers, the 2001:Space Odyssey from behind the iron curtain.
