Hanso Industries, the early years?

File this under Fun With Filmstrips. The folks behind Lost are at it again, or are they? This six-minute video popped up online last week, purportedly looking at how Hanso Industries got going in the 1960s. As you look for clues (notice where the electromagnetic satellite orbits and stops?! social engineering? cryogenics? things to ponder!), let your mind wander, as mine did, and consider where they found these films, to what lengths they had to go to "age 'em up," where they found the music, and where these old scientists actually are. Are any of them still alive? If so, how do they feel about getting tangled up in the Lost mythology? At any rate. Kick back and enjoy...
