He was born Jewish but was raised Catholic, and his wealthy father kept his family safe from the Nazis. After World War II, Lem, who had gone to medical school, abandoned his medical studies and became an author. He wrote many short stories in the late 1940s and in 1951 this book, "Astronauci" (The Astronauts), was published. It was adapted into this movie in 1960, and in 1962 a highly edited version was released in the U.S. as "First Spaceship on Venus". Over the 1950s he wrote more novels, and in 1961 he wrote his most famous novel, Solaris, which was adapted into a Russian TV movie in 1968, and the highly acclaimed Russian movie by Andrei Tarkovsky in 1972. He is widely regarded as one of the foremost science fiction authors of all time, on a par with H.G. Wells! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
