Strum your sitar and prepare to launch all Eagles as Miles and Charlie once more become the Space Scamps as they make a second trip to the moon for three more episodes of Gerry Anderson's ‘Event Horizon meets Garth Marenghi's Darkplace' show Space 1999 (Miles is now worried he has created a monster by showing Charlie this show) and in doing so, get to talk about psychadelic trippiness and Kano's obsession with Computer in ‘Black Sun,' Christopher Lee (although he's totally phoning it in,) and the dispatch of a weasly middle manager in ‘Earthbound' and then with ‘The Troubled Spirit,' Halloween comes a little early and it's probably more spooky than whatever we'll end up doing for our Halloween episode… EPISODES DISCUSSED: Black Sun (11:32), Earthbound (34:20) and The Troubled Spirit (58:40)Talking Points Include: More Space 1999, Death Stranding, a trip to Scotland, the science is impossible, Moon Base Alpha's limited resources, British Pessimism vs. American Gung-Ho, Gene Roddenberry would never, Hard SF has a tendency to go full magic weirdness, Bohemian Rhapsody deserves it's rep, Christopher Lee is phoning it in, Simmons is the David Brent in Space, cowardly heroes, our brave explorers enjoying shouting MMMMUUUUUUUUTAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNT like in ‘Mission of the Darians,' Charlie repeats a Johnny Byrne joke from the last episode, awesome sitar music this is the most halloween episode we've done for the show, a wicked burn from Charlie's old teacher Mr. Jafferji, is Moonbase Alpha a liminal space? M. Night Shyamalan films and surprisingly… some Star Trek.
In the far flung past of the 1970s comes the far flung future of Moonbase Alpha as it is itself flung far away from the planet Earth! What crises, adventures, and space trauma awaits our crew? Listen and find out!
Who better to see us safely into the new year than Moonbase Alpha's security guard, Jack Klaff? Jack's had a fascinating career and life and is full of stories about both.

The Year is 1999. A cataclysmic accident has sent Earth's moon hurtling into space, leaving behind a broken planet. Life has become a fight for survival for the people of Moonbase Alpha as their journey takes them far deeper into the universe than they ever thought possible! This game has you playing one of the crew of Moonbase Alpha on their search for a new home. You can be an adventurous pilot, a stalwart security guard, a bold commander, an audacious medic, or any one of the 300 Alphans. This game by Modiphius uses their 2D20 system. The game is now available to pre-order, and Andrew Peregrine will be on the show to tell us about what to expect in the frontiers of space! ----- Pre-order: https://modiphius.net/pages/space-1999 ----- This episode was pre-recorded and streamed on October 14, 2024. Watch live every week on Twitch at http://twitch.tv/enpublishing
Not DnD is a weekly show discussing tabletop roleplaying games. Each week EN Publishing's @tabletopjess interviews the creators behind different tabletop roleplaying games that aren't D&D! You can watch the live recording every Monday at 5pm ET / 10pm BST on YouTube or Twitch, or catch up with the podcast platform of your choice by searching 'Not DnD'. Here's the games we will be looking at in October 2024. Space 1999 - 14th October The Year is 1999. A cataclysmic accident has sent Earth's moon hurtling into space, leaving behind a broken planet. Life has become a fight for survival for the people of Moonbase Alpha as their journey takes them far deeper into the universe than they ever thought possible! This game has you playing one of the crew of Moonbase Alpha on their search for a new home. You can be an adventurous pilot, a stalwart security guard, a bold commander, an audacious medic, or any one of the 300 Alphans. This game by Modiphius uses their 2D20 system. The game is now available to pre-order, and Andrew Peregrine will be on the show to tell us about what to expect in the frontiers of space! Paint The Town Red - 21st October Paint the Town Red is a game about being dead. You play as a vampire chasing the sensation of feeling alive, to escape the rot they feel in their soul. This game is about depression, partying and falling in love, and explores themes of trauma, vice and loneliness. The game is published by SoulMuppet publishing and is built on the engines of Orbital Blues and Best Left Buried. Zachary Cox will be joining us to share more about the game which will be live on backerkit soon! Bludgeon TTRPG System - 28th October The Bludgeon TTRPG System is a crunchy, tactical RPG with flexible mechanics. The game is made by a team of Indian designers and artists and is currently in development and being play tested. The games core design centres around power sources the characters have (whether Martial, Chakra, Primal, Arcane or Divine), and a scaling system where power and experience does not mean bigger numbers. Instead, it means that you're a more rounded character with more options via adaptations, class abilities, and passives skills. Designer Tejas Oza will be on Not DnD to share more about the game, and how you can get involved.
Dragon's Domain. Season 1, Episode 8. First broadcast Thursday 23 October 1975. This week's eldritch alien threat is, for once, not intent on killing everyone on the base; instead it takes the more focused approach of killing everyone on a deep space probe and then hunting down and destroying Moonbase Alpha's resident Italian big game hunter. Oh, and traumatising an entire generation of nerdy moppets in the 1970s.
It may be fan service, but it's served with a second helping of season one's existential dread.

After watching some times Star Trek delved into Cosmic Horror, Miles might have told Charlie ‘Oh, this stuff is tame, let's watch Space 1999' instead. So, for this episode, we are now rebranding as #spacescamps as we talk about the greatest collection of space adventuring office workers Moonbase Alpha has to offer in Gerry Anderson's Space 1999. After we briefly gloss over the opening episode ‘Breakaway,' we discuss Brian Blessed being out-hammed by the amazingly named JOHN SHRAPNEL in ‘Death's Other Dominion' (27:36), things get a bit tentacle monster in ‘Dragon's Domain' (40:26), watch some amazing class politics and screams of ‘MUUUUUUUTANT' in ‘Mission of the Darians,' (51:57) and bring it all to a close in ‘End of Eternity' (01:01:09) as we meet a crazed immortal psychopath, which, if you watch the previous episode just come to the conclusion that this happens a lot in Space 1999, it's not Star Trek, but it's a hell of a lot of fun! Launch All Eagles! Stop being weird! Talking Points Include: A FUCKING NUCLEAR EXPLOSION ON THE MOON. Balataro, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, the 2016 Ghostbusters film is fun, The Mad Max movies, Date Movies, Miles ruining ‘The Day After Tomorrow' for the person in front of him (EDITOR NOTE: While Ian Holm is the British actor in question, he doesn't deliver the final toast to Manchester United in the scene, that's actually Richard McMillan) What is Space 1999? Supermarionation, Gerry Anderson, The Elevator Pitch, the Earth is fucked, Christopher Lee in an episode we did not watch, Space 1999's budget is akin to bullying 1970s Doctor Who for it's lunch money, the cast of Space 1999 are not qualified space heroes, Koenig is far more Office Boss than Space Cowboy, it's nice to have our characters called Nick and Paul and Adamn, but it does make it hard to distinguish, Charlie's notes are sometimes as complex as ‘man wearing neck-tie… evil?', Peter Wyngarde, BRIAN BLESSED, JOHN SHRAPNEL, Grant Morrison comics we wouldn't reread, asbestos everywhere, Brian's fate in this episode, Michael Sheard (Who actually plays Ozzel in Empire Strikes Back) some good horror beats that devolve straight into Garth Marenghi's Darkplace-esque shenanigans, they'll never meet anyone nice, Charlie has started watching ‘Sapphire and Steel,' ‘it's a metaphor for capitalism,' Barbaria Bain's leg envy re: Joan Collins, Koenig's ever continual frustration at the inability of people to simply be normal in space, more on Dave, Charlie's former (and sketchy) employer, Immortal Hellraiser BS, Victory through OSHA violations, Long Recapping of DC' Comics Legion Lost, is this the first time Miles has done his Werner Herzog impression? Charlie mentions the roleplaying game ‘Mothership' about ten times throughout the episode, did Charlie like it? Would Star Trek Phase II have been like this? UFO, Miles recorded the second part of the Breakfast in the Ruins episode of ‘The Coming of the Terraphiles' and GUESS WHAT It's going to be a Three Parter!
After watching some times Star Trek delved into Cosmic Horror, Miles might have told Charlie ‘Oh, this stuff is tame, let's watch Space 1999' instead. So, for this episode, we are now rebranding as #spacescamps as we talk about the greatest collection of space adventuring office workers Moonbase Alpha has to offer in Gerry Anderson's Space 1999. The post 51. Space Scamps first appeared on Nerd & Tie Podcast Network.
In September 1999, John Koenig reports to Earth's Space Research Center at Moonbase Alpha as its new commander. A strange sickness is killing some of the Moonbase Alpha crew. Commander Koenig's investigation reveals that the source lies at Nuclear Waste Disposal Area 1 caused by excessive magnetic energy fields. The continuous buildup of energy shortly causes massive explosion clusters that knock the moon off orbit into deep space.
Death's Other Dominion. Season 1, Episode 5. First broadcast Thursday 2 October 1975. This month, we're faced with an alarming metaphysical choice: eternal life among a bunch of absurdly hot models in Hugh Hefner's second least favourite Swiss chalet, or a normal lifespan cleaning up the corridors of Moonbase Alpha after its latest nuclear catastrophe. Victor, Helena, Bob and Alan all want to make the obviously correct (if basic) choice, but their fun is inevitably spoiled by miserable old John Koenig and the second law of thermodynamics.
War Games. Season 1, Episode 4. First broadcast Thursday 25 September 1975. This month's ethereal immortal beings in a surreal Pinewood studio are Isla Blair and Anthony Valentine, who are (reasonably enough) so keen to avoid meeting the crew of Moonbase Alpha that they decide to just kill them all instead. Or do they?
Approaching an inhabited planet, the Alphans are suddenly pounced upon by warships. In an unprovoked attack, Moonbase Alpha is devastated by Earth-style Hawk fighters. With 128 dead and Alpha unable to sustain life, Koenig and Helena appeal to the aliens for mercy. The aliens proclaim the Earthmen to be an invading virus, with no right to exist.

Collision Course. Season 1, Episode 3. First broadcast Thursday 18 September 1975. Moonbase Alpha is on a collision course this week, ineluctably destined to crash into a giant pustulent planet. Or is it? Commander Koenig — overcome by the charms of Queen Margaret Leighton — doesn't think so, and so he turns up to Main Mission in his pyjamas like a Moonie and threatens to gun down anyone who attempts to prevent the collision, including, upsettingly, our own Barbara. But — inevitably — it all turns out for the best, and we end our second episode in a row staring out the window contemplating the metaphysical metamorphosis we have wrought.
Actor Nick Tate portrayed Astronaut "Captain Alan Carter" on "Space: 1999", an accomplished pilot and integral member of Moonbase Alpha, as well as a beloved character on the show.

It's September 13, 1999, and a nuclear waste explosion sends the occupants of Moonbase Alpha careening out of Earth orbit.Catch up with the episode here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEUoNOw3oHw&list=PLUA9kG1DciUwY2VSvIGk3WZI_TqJMynxGIf you dig our dive into "Space: 1999," please support us at Patreon, where you get episodes early with all the unedited banter, as well as live chats from time to time:https://www.patreon.com/podcastiopodcastiusWe also get into both "good" and "bad" films at Films & Filth:https://filmsandfilth.transistor.fm/The Twilight Zone:https://timeenoughpodcast.transistor.fm/And Disney:https://occultdisney.transistor.fm/And Matt makes music:https://rovingsagemedia.bandcamp.com/Coming Soon:September 20: Matter of Life and DeathSeptember 27: Black SunOctober 4: Ring Around the Moon
As the people of Moonbase Alpha continue their odyssey through space on their wandering Moon, the long-term influences of their recent alien encounters start to impact upon their course. But first, an infinity of possibilities opens up for them, with terrifying consequences. 3.1 Skull in the Sky by Marc Platt There's a deluge upon the Moon that will change everything forever. The Alphans must adapt and relationships will change. Then, above them, a portent of doom arrives. 3.2 The Godhead Interrogative by Nicholas Briggs Dashka Kano has been working on translating the alien script on Zantor's artefact. She's beginning to make progress when one hundred objects are detected, advancing towards the Moon. Dashka's skills will be tested to the limit by the force of an ancient civilisation. 3.3 Dragon's Domain by Nicholas Briggs Dr Helena Russell relates a tale of hope, terror and tragedy. The Alphans discover a potential means to enact the will of their referendum and return to Earth. But the Ultra mission will be a journey into unimaginable horror.

This Time Ram, we collide fourth Doctor Tom Baker with Patrick Troughton's 'The Moonbase' and wait to see which Doc comes out on top! We also consider these vital questions: Moonbase Alpha or Moonbase 3? How do you wear a scarf in a spacesuit? What do Cybermen have against aerials? Where have all these crabs come from? We also get to consider Harry the gooseberry, Helene Merrien and the Green Cross Code Man. And is that Sam Becket? Hoo boy.

This week we land on Moonbase Alpha to see what the future holds. Join us for Space 1999
This title was released in February 2022. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 31 March 2022, and on general sale after this date. These are dark times on Moonbase Alpha, and along comes an opportunity to return home to Earth. For one of the Alphans, this is the end of their journey… 2.1 Mooncatcher by Marc Platt Strange alien messages are being beamed at Moonbase Alpha. Are they a welcome or a warning? No one can tell. When a giant object appears on the long-range scanners, stir-crazy Alpha personnel are keen to investigate. But when Delta One's secrets begin to unfold, an unexpected and disturbing series of events is set in motion. 2.2 Earthbound by Iain Meadows Is the Moon truly destined to roam the stars forever, or should the people of Alpha divert their efforts towards a return mission to Earth? Koenig knows in his heart that Earth is lost to them. But Commissioner Simmons is convinced returning home is a serious option. Perhaps there's only one way to resolve the issue once and for all. But will an experiment in democracy tear Alpha apart, leaving it open to incoming alien dangers? 2.3 Journey's End by Nicholas Briggs The Kaldosians have arrived. Can their advanced technology offer a solution to the Project Earthbound mission? Their leader, Zantor, makes an emotional connection. But will this only lead to heartbreak and death?

Well, we have a double sized episode for you today as we cover Space:1999's first 2-part episode where big slimy eye aliens take the disguise of the loved ones of the crew of Moonbase Alpha. Did this need to be 2 episodes? Does it work? We go over that and many other aspects of it […]
Ah, another alien boards Moonbase Alpha and causes some hell. Something that happens all too frequently. We begin of two Fred Freiberg written episodes that almost easily reflect one another. And our regular reminder, we are going through Space: 1999 in the production order, not broadcast order. Streaming services have them in broadcast order, so […]
Science fiction loves the concept of mirror or parallel universes and Space: 1999 becomes no stranger to that in “Seed of Destruction”. Here tells the tale of a mirror Koenig from a mirror asteroid trying to infiltrate Moonbase Alpha. Hopefully nobody will notice the bad “part” of him. And our regular reminder, we are going […]
First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on November 28th 2021 We welcome back WARREN CUMMINGS who has moved from his usual VISION ON SOUND comfort zone to move across into the realms of science-fiction, and has joined me to discuss Gerry Anderson's popular live-action series called UFO which was, and is, a television favourite we both share, and which graced our screens with a vision of the future over fifty years ago, involving the groovy future fashions of 1980, purple wigs, sexism, beautiful production design, production problems, and the various star-studded adventures of yet another Gerry Anderson Organisation With An Acronym which were about as far removed from Captain Scarlet as you can possibly imagine and, ultimately, would lead to the world of Moonbase Alpha and SPACE: 1999. It's a much-loved series, which, despite any intruding flippancy you may have detected, I think comes across in our chat, and I hope that you all enjoy it. PLEASE NOTE - For Copyright reasons, musical content sometimes has to be removed for the podcast edition. All the spoken word content remains (mostly) as it was in the broadcast version. Hopefully this won't spoil your enjoyment of the show.

Moonbase Alpha was a video game released in 2010, developed by a handful of game studios in partnership with NASA, which placed you in a damaged future moonbase in need of repair. The game is best known for its brief status as a meme, thanks to the text-to-speech functionality, but its story didn't end there. Hosted by Corbin Davenport, guest starring Jules Wang.

The Moon has been sucked through a wormhole in space and has arrived countless miles away from its proper place. The crew of Moonbase Alpha can only guess at the resultant devastation left behind on Earth. They must decide how best they can survive. Some Alphans find it difficult to let go of the notion of returning to Earth, others are facing the reality that they must find another home to ensure the survival of the human race. They can't survive on Alpha indefinitely. 1.1 The Siren Call by Andrew Smith The people of Moonbase Alpha are recovering from the shock of their base and their Moon having been blasted through a wormhole in space. But now they are far from home with little hope of a return to Earth. Ahead of them is the planet Meta, whose signal somehow caused this catastrophe. Could this be their new home or does yet more danger lie ahead? 1.2 Death's Other Dominion by Roland Moore (adapted from the original teleplay by Anthony Terpiloff and Elizabeth Barrows) A voice calls to the Alphans from a mysterious, snowbound planet. Can it be possible that humans from Earth have really colonised this remote world? When Commander Koenig and his team investigate, they discover the planet Nival holds many terrible secrets. 1.3 Goldilocks by Andrew Smith Not too hot, not too cold. The perfect planet on which life can thrive. But not all forms of life that thrive in the Goldilocks zone are peaceful. Investigating this lush paradise, the Alphans must battle an ancient terror for survival. Based on the original tv series created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson.

The descendants of the original Moonbase Alpha crew are tired of exploring the wondrous universe in their generational fleet. They discover a forbidden psychic time-travel technology to inhabit the bodies of past NASA personnel to prevent the centuries of wandering through space. All is not as it seems though as they end up taking over the minds of a TV crew playing the parts of Astronauts rather than actual NASA personnel! — "Space: 1999: The Psychomorph" by Michael Butterworth ----more---- http://covermyasscast.podbean.com/mf/web/ys4nkh/CMA-066.jpg Find CoverMyAssCast on Twitter, Gmail and www.covermyasscast.com.
Katherine has been dreading watching Space: 1999. As far as she's concerned its just too long and too boring. But as the crew of Moonbase Alpha face an apocalyptic nuclear disaster, maybe the drama and tension of this incredible piece of television will be enough to make Katherine change her mind...
1999 was not just the year the Moonbase Alpha blasted into parts unknown and we all partied with Prince on the brink of Y2K. It was also a year of some amazing films.

@TinDogPodcast Reviews After the Apollo missions of the 1960s and early 1970s, space exploration was very nearly abandoned as public pressure mounted for money to be concentrated on problems down here on Earth. But, by a whisker, funding was granted for a base on the Moon. Greatly expanded, it became the international Moonbase Alpha we know today. 311 personnel serve in a perfect, self-sustaining, artificial environment - their mission statement: ‘to forward the frontiers of human knowledge and science’. Dateline: 13th September 1999. The interplanetary Meta Probe is due to be launched from a platform orbiting the Moon. What could possibly go wrong?

Flashback with shazbazzar and JediShua to moon-moments from 2013, 2014, and 2017 as the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission weekend celebrations come to a close. Many EarBuds will remember our Moonbase Alpha discussion with SuperFriend Paul Bateman about the short-lived TV series Space 1999, but fewer will remember the brief mentions of the moon in some older clips from NEWS and HISTORY LESSON segments from seasons one and two. PLUS: JediShua and SuperFriend Tony Soehner tell about their experiences at Galaxy’s Edge. Moon Moments Scouring the archives of TechnoRetro Dads for tidbits of moon news and history from seasons past resulted in some strange-sounding stories we had forgotten about — and even a couple of references to the Red Julius kiosk at the Mars Mall (maybe a few EarBuds will remember that reference). From staking claims on the moon to naming moon craters after your sweetheart, in retrospect, we may have discovered how some moon-based locations got their strange names: Mare Fecunditatis, Mount Marilyn, and Crater Joliot-Curie. Moonbase Alpha: Space 1999 In this remastered flashback, Concept Artist, Art Director, and SuperFriend Paul Bateman joins shazbazzar and JediShua on Moonbase Alpha to talk about Space: 1999, a British television series that lasted a brief two seasons from 1975 to 1977. From big budget beginnings and a great premise in the spirit of 2001: A Space Odyssey to a choppy second season resembling an homage to Star Trek, Space: 1999 is nevertheless an iconic must-see with its curious creatures, magnificent Moonbase Alpha, and classic crafts, the Eagles.

WOW!!! This week’s episode is out of this world and filled with Lunatics, parks and just outright fun in the powder or snow. NASA is planning on sending people back to the moon and are starting to plan missions in advance with an eye to researching developments for future exploration. That’s right folks, it may not be 1999 but Moonbase Alpha is finally looking at becoming a reality. Plus there are going to be new buggies and other equipment being sent to the moon so the Astronauts will have something to play with when they arrive next. Wonder if they will find that hidden base full of Nazis on the dark side of the moon or transformers?Next we look into why Manga sales are taking over the U.S comic sales. Could it be the fact that the subject matter is just so much cooler, fun and broad? Or is it part of some plot to take over the world and they are brain washing us all? Hmmm, if this was an anime episode we would now include a musical interlude. The scene, while our heroes wander the country looking for the answer our work on computers calculating and plotting what is happening. This is when the nutty and bumbling sidekick runs around in circles and makes a mess and eats lots of fried chicken. Jeepers, we are living in an anime, now I want my ramen and feel an overwhelming need to run down the street with my arms flung behind me screaming. Nope, not happening, oh well, such a shame.In response to a request from a listener we have had the Professor look into child safety measures in gaming such as the new Harry Potter Wizards Unite. We have a number of articles linked in the notes that have information that can help parents develop strategies aimed at helping protect their dirt magnets, children or teenage food disposal units. There are some really good points and suggestions in this, but as we aren’t parents we are unable to offer any expert advice. This is a really huge topic and it is something we took extremely seriously. If you have any suggestions please feel free to post them on the page and share with each other.Now, it is that time where we have the usual shout out, remembrances, birthdays, and special events. Be careful of those surprise mechanisms that try to loot you like a politician with eight arms. Take care of yourselves and look out for each other, stay hydrated and we will catch you next time.

This Episode - We join the perils of Moonbase Alpha as they find themselves spiraling out of Earth's orbit in Sylvia and Gerry Anderson's, Space 1999 (1975-77). Along the way we wonder how they have so much paper on a treeless moon, try to contact a ghostly moustache, get nostalgic about double glazing adverts, and discover Paul's dislike for newscasters in TV and films. Music from Space 1999 by Barry Gray, outro Funko by Irving Martin & Brian Dee. Find us on patreon.com/retrospection
FINALLY an episode of the Cultures of Energy podcast that is for once totally wholesome and family-friendly and appropriate to listen to with your kids! Cymene and Dominic share their own thoughts about talking to children about climate change. And then (13:51) we welcome an author that will be well known (especially to listeners aged 8-12 and their families), Stuart Gibbs, the author of the very popular FunJungle, Spy School and Moonbase Alpha middle grade series. Stuart has thematized both climate change and animal conservation in his books and we talk to him about how readers have responded to those interventions, about his writing process in general, and why he thinks it’s important for adults to talk to children honestly about our environmental challenges. If you happen to be in the Houston area on April 30th, please check out Stuart’s reading at the Blue Willow Bookstore, deets here: https://www.bluewillowbookshop.com/event/stu-gibbs-0 PS And, as promised, here are some solid online resources for teaching especially younger kids about climate change and climate action: http://climatechangeconnection.org/resources/climate-friendly-schools/resources-for-schools/; https://www.commonsense.org/education/articles/4-free-tools-to-teach-about-climate-change; https://www.earthguardians.org/50simplethings/; https://thinkprogress.org/how-to-talk-to-a-5-year-old-about-climate-change-ef8ec30b1bd1/

Join Scott and Steve as they party like it's 1999 and review "Breakaway" the first episode of an oft-forgotten campy piece of 70s science fiction: Space: 1999! From its strangely placed funky theme song, to its bland, impractical uniforms, they talk about it all! Listen as they detail the adventure of the newly appointed Moonbase Alpha commander, John Koenig and Dr. Helena Russell (played by a disgruntled Martin Landau and his, at the time, wife, Barbara Bain), as they attempt to solve the mystery of the cleverly named "Meta-probe astronaut virus infection" (which also might be radiation or magnetism) and...oh yeah, while they are working on the case, THE ENTIRE MOON breaks away from Earth's orbit! They'll also discuss the show's rocky start, from personal problems among the cast and crew to technical issues in the filming and production, and how this entire series was really intended to be another season of the previously failed sci-fi series "UFO".
