The interesting thing about the series is that it was written as pretty 
close science fiction in the beginning, and it was intended to only run 
for a year or so (the main series still is running...). So the early 
Perry Rhodan novels tried to establish a world 10 years ahead of the 
current date. Lots of stuff in the early stories did not hold up even 
months later (the first few novels had thought-reading machines used by 
human scientists for example).
The whole beginning of the series reads like some bizarre alternate 
universe, especially coming from the real world timeline. It might not 
be immediately visible, but there are some real oddities in there.
