Summary

[edit]
Non-free media information and use rationale true for Mysteron
Description

The twin "rings" of green light that indicate the presence of the Mysterons. The rings are projected over scenes of death or destruction brought about by the Mysterons (in this case, a car accident that has killed two men) as the aliens create exact replicas of their victims to do their bidding.

Mysteron

Portion used

Whole frame to avoid misrepresenting the action

Low resolution?

Yes, resolution greatly reduced from original presentation

Purpose of use

To add to the in-universe and real-world discussion of the Mysteron "rings", a key aspect of this fictional alien species, in the Mysteron article. The rings are a subject of critical commentary in the article and their appearance and effect are difficult to convey adequately to the reader through text alone; thus, inclusion of this image significantly increases the reader's understanding of the topic. Given that the Mysterons themselves are rarely seen, the image also serves to visually identify a fictional species that the reader would have trouble picturing mentally.

Replaceable?

No free-use alternatives available or suitable as Captain Scarlet and all of its elements are copyrighted and attempting to re-create this image through e.g. amateur model-making would misrepresent the series and its creative elements.

Other information

Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons produced by Century 21 Productions for ITC Entertainment between 1967 and 1968.
