It seems that both the Disney movie (and way too underrated, might I add) The Black Hole and the Gerry Anderson tv-series Space: 1999 are very much in debt to this early - and less known - 2001: A Space Odyssey logo, used on early PR materials.
You know, I've never twigged to that Arto, you're right.
Regarding the Black Hole, it has got some good points and I do like the unique design of the USS Cygnus .It is somewhat underrated but I put that down to the Disneyesque elements and a plot more or less identical to 20, 000 leagues under the sea.

I believe there's talk of a remake.
