SPACE: 1999 - Final Message From Moonbase Alpha

Ever wonder what happened to the inhabitants of Moonbase Alpha, once we stopped receiving transmissions of their adventures?

Well, back in 1999, regular series writer Johnny Byrne and cast member Zienia Merton (Sandra), managed to get this final message out to reassure fans that the Alphans... well, watch it for yourself.

This particular version of the video includes a fan-made opening credits sequence using a rejected version of the Season 2 theme by Derek Wadsworth.

ABOUT THIS BLOG

This blog is dedicated to the science fiction films and television series of the 1970s - and very early 80s - including such nostalgic favorites as Star Wars, Space: 1999, UFO, Space Academy, the original Battlestar Galactica, Jason of Star Command, Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, Logan's Run and many others.

But be warned: I still love these productions with all the enthusiasm I held for them as a kid, and they will be treated here with affection and respect. If you're looking for someone to snarkily denigrate "old" movies, you've come to the wrong site.

So journey with us back to the days when special effects were created by skillful hands and spaceships were detailed models, when robots were obligatory comedy relief, when square-jawed heroes and cloaked villains battled among the stars -- and the future was fun!
