A strange object orbits the moonbase.
During my lifetime I must have re-watched this episode about 30 times. In 2024, after giving Space 1999 a rest for a while, I retuned to it. I had the oddest reaction to Ring Around The Moon. I was at the edge of my seat for most of the hour. But I was so baffled as to why I could not remember the ending if I had seen it so many times before?? Then I found out why the ending escaped my memory - a not so good climax.
But whatever, just take in the knockout Eagle effects footage, the outstanding acting of the cast (Landau, Bain, Morse) and the music.
In recent weeks, I have watched a 90 minute online interview with Australian cast member Nick Tate (Alan Carter), he brought the whole 1970s Space 1999 experience to life in modern times. I think that 90 minute interview has given me an even greater bond with Space 1999.
