Eighth broadcast episode of the puppet/marionette show from 1963, which was called "Planet Patrol" in the US.
Similar to the Gerry Anderson shows, Fireball XL5 and Supercar from around the same time - this show looks dated now, but is still quite fun to watch.

I am uploading in the order that the episodes were broadcast, so this may differ from some later DVD order.

In this episode called "The Rings Of Saturn"........
No one from Earth has penetrated the mysterious flashing rings of Saturn, yet this is what Dart and his crew set out to attempt.
They are patrolling nearby when Husky spots what looks like a never before seen type of spaceship, apparently passing through the planet's impassible rings.
Dart sets out to find out what is going on, leaving the galasphere in just his spacesuit - with what looks suspiciously look a roman candle propelling him along up his backside.
Husky and Slim left onboard begin to worry when nothing is heard from Dart for a while..........
