By recent request, I am uploading several images, adding text, etc.
A second version of the original manga story that was eventually titled AMBASSADOR ATOM. There were several other stories that also have 2 versions on this animated series.
There apparently is a theory that people identical to ourselves exist on distant planets, or some such thing. The same or very similar situations apply, etc. Multiverse.
So, here we have 天馬博士/ Doctor Tenma, his son, 天馬飛雄 / トビ雄 / トビオ (three ways to spell his name!?) / Tobio , eagerly anticipating living on the newly discovered planet. Tobio obviously had not suffered the same fate as Earth's Tobio.
Also, the space versions have large ears, in case you had not noticed.
天馬 Tenma literally means Heavenly Horse.
飛雄 rook (giant bird of Arabian Nights, etc. 雄 =masculine, male, hero, leader, superiority, excellence

CONTINUING,
Here is the Space お茶の 水博士 / Doctor Ochanomizu; notice he is the only character in this story whose space & Earth versions are indistinguishable from one another.
His name literally means Tea Water
The object of the Space peoples' attention: Earth!

Once the land on Earth (where else, but Japan?):
At Earth's observatory, Doctor Ochanomizu, アトム /atomu /Atom-& ヒゲオヤジ Higeoyaji-(literally bearded father) meet with 天文学者 Tenbungakusha (Astronomer). I thought this was a name, but, alas, only his profession.
ヒゲオヤジ using kanji: 髭 (hige/ beard) 親父 (oyaji / father)
What is Higeoyaji angry about?

These two are real historical figures!

The other guy seems to be Eisaku Sato, though I do not see much resemblance.

But that welcome would not last long, as the food shortage became known. Earth's population doubled since the aliens arrived!

I've added this episode to the Image Index (2nd edition) thread.
Re: 183, Japanese People from Space (--,--)
The problem become obvious when the Space People taste Earth food, especially flesh:
The cook initially is happy, he will be rich, but--
What happens when food shortages occur?
Skipping a few set-up frames, the Space version of this guy, as a pedestrian, was hit by a car the Earth version was driving:
ドヒャー教授 / Dohyā kyōju / Dohya Professor

This is the most violence I have seen in the series!
