Editing Lost in Space (section)

===Props===
Props and monsters were regularly recycled from other [[Irwin Allen]] shows. A sea monster outfit that had been featured on ''[[Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (TV series)|Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea]]'' might get a spray paint job for its ''Lost in Space'' appearance, while space monster costumes were reused on ''Voyage'' as sea monsters.<ref>{{cite book|title=Irwin Allen Television Productions, 1964-1970|first=Jon|last=Abbott|publisher=McFarland & Co.|year=2006|page=178}}</ref> The clear round plastic pen holder used as a control surface in the episode "The Derelict" turned up regularly throughout the show's entire run both as primary controls to activate alien machinery (or open doors or cages), and as background set dressing; some primary controls were seen used in episodes such as Season 1's "The Keeper (Parts 1 and 2)", "His Majesty Smith", and Season 3's "A Day At The Zoo", and "The Promised Planet".

Computers and tape drives were often depicted in various episodes using the [[Burroughs Corporation#References in popular culture|Burroughs 205]] commercial products. Spacecraft models were also routinely re-used. The forbidding derelict ship from season 1 was redressed to become the ''Vera Castle'' in season 3. The fuel barge from season 2 became a space lighthouse in season 3. The derelict ship was used again in season 3, with a simple color change. Likewise the alien pursuer's ship in "The Sky Pirate", was lifted from the 1958 film ''[[War of the Satellites]]'', and was re-used in the episode "Deadliest of the Species".{{citation needed|date=September 2018}}

Filming took place at 20th Century Fox Corp. studios and stages, Los Angeles. For season 1 & 2  Stage 11 (Jupiter 2/Campsite) and Stage 6 (lower deck, planet set and cave) were used. Due to budget cuts in 3rd season the Jupiter 2, campsite and lower deck were shifted to Stage 17 (opened in 1966). Stage 11 was used for planet exterior, cave and various alien planet sets.<ref>AIchat</ref>
