Is this going to be a merger of Space 1999 and UFO? One minor quibble, Jupiter's moon is Callisto with a "C", I Googled it to make sure there wasn't another as the planet has 63 known moons (to date). I'm assuming you are reffering to one of the four Galileian moons and not one of the smaller lesser known bodies. Poor Joan, All gave some, Some gave all. What do you mean, we're out of coffee!

It's sort of a merger with Space 1999 but it isn't going to have the same premise as Space 1999. Moonbase Alpha is going to serve a better purpose in the war against the Aliens and John Koenig is going to have a different role in the series. I think I might have him as the new Moonbase controller, should I decide to introduce him that is? If Sky One was real....I'd be flying it right about now IP Logged

One tiny typo (I guess?) I noticed in this para: “Three years ago, Moonbase was involved in a mass UFO attack. All three Interceptors had been destroyed, the lunar defence tanks had also been destroyed and SID had been knocked out beyond repair.” Ed explained as he raised his voice. “The attack wasn’t aimed at Earth, but at the Moon itself. A UFO was able to fly along the surface and fire directly at the water and installations plant, destroying it completely. Then they converged on Moonbase itself and blasted it to smithereens. Thirty people died that night. One of which was Lieutenant Joan Harrison. Ever since that incident, SHADO’s defences had been breeched, with UFO’s entering the atmosphere on almost an hourly basis. That’s why I pushed through the request the build a huge, advanced Moonbase. One that could withstand mass attacks and a huge number of Interceptors.” I'm guessing you meant Joan Harrington? As I said, it's a small thing but no doubt one you'd want to change. IP Logged
