19 - Ghost in Space

GHOST IN SPACE EPISODE SYNOPSIS: Smith gets rid of some blasting materials by throwing them into a nearby bog. The resulting explosion causes an angry, invisible presence to materialize from the marsh that night and make its way to the Jupiter 2 where it wreaks havoc until daylight. Smith, who has been trying to call up spirits with a Ouija board, thinks the manifestation is his dead Uncle Thaddeus. Believing that his uncle needs to be placated, he persuades Will to go to the marsh with him the following night to perform incantations. During the proceedings, Will drops the lantern and falls into the bog while looking for it. Although he clambers out again he has now become invisible. Smith discovers, to his terror, that the angry presence is not his uncle. As he is unable to Will, he thinks that he has drowned.
