Radio producers, always on the lookout to do something new and fresh, decided to cash in on the current public interest and popularity of science fiction by producing a series to encapsulate space travel, rockets, alien beings, etc. In 1951 AWA devised an interplanetary series called the Rocky Starr Adventures. Although promoted as a children's program, it had many fans equally in the adult population as well.

The first story in the series was titled “Destination Venus”, and it ran for 104 episodes. The starring role of Rocky was played by Howard Craven, and Joe McCormick played Mitch, his friend and pal. The series was produced in Sydney in the AWA studios...

It was a children’s show about the interplanetary adventures of daredevil Rocky Starr and his intrepid team. It was considered topical and highly dramatic; the stories were of courage and daring so dear to the juvenile heart. There were eleven different stories in the series.
