Classic Sesame Street animation- M in Space

About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery

1. Mars, Mercury, Meteor, Moon, Makemake, Milky Way, Miranda, Mimas,
2. It is not true that M is in space
3. Earlier this year I recall reading that the letter-in-space animations referenced an ad campaign for Mercury cars. Those Mercury ads must have run when I was too young to remember Sesame Street; I saw the letter cartoons in kindergarten but never connected them with anything on commercial TV.
4. It's for the alphabet jungle game
5. These sound effects were originally used by Horta-Mahana Corp,who worked very closely
   with Filmation Associates in the early and mid 1970s-Ralph Bakshi also used Horta-Mahana in his 1976 movie "WIZZARDS", these were sound effects men Sam Horta
   and George Mahana-who both have impressive credentials! Sam Horta was a film editor
   on the original "BATMAN" TV series at Fox.
6. M is for Mars!
7. It definitely is.
8. And YES, in the latter half of this cartoon, as the M zooms towards its destination, and then as it gets there, that DOES sound like Sonia Manzano(Maria on the show), saying "M!!!"
9. The Z cartoon was here on YouTube, but it seems to have been pulled. It would be great to see it again, as well as the V and the M cartoons. Oh, well, at least the V and M ones are still available, at the moment. 
10. Does anyone have any of the three neon letter films?(there were three, one of the letter R, one of O, and one of H-each letter being pulled up to the roof of the Empire Hotel, in Manhattan, I recently found out, was the building used in each of the three films.) They were on YouTube, but recently got pulled(the R and O films were, but not the H film.) Anyway, it would be great, to see all three of those on YouTube.
11. I always liked to be creative, and use my imagination, by imagining it was MARS(or Mercury, or the MOON, that the M is landing on, at the end), and same difference in the V cartoon(V for VENUS, that it lands on, at the end, and as for the Z cartoon, the ZENITH, in the sky, that the Z lands "on" or in.) Pretty creative, eh?
12. It's probably is her doing it!
13. At the end, the voice sounds an awful lot like Sonia Manzano (Maria).
14. @kaitiscarlett They should have done a "Q in space"!
15. @panda374 No ... what's the connection between "M" and space ? :)
16. what's the connection ?
