This week, the Moon becomes a reluctant missile platform for two implacable and entirely incompatible genders, both completely untroubled by the possibility that they might kill everyone on the base. Also, the show ends. Sort of.

Brian Johnson (1939-2026)

Foi anunciada a morte, aos 87 anos, do designer e diretor de efeitos visuais Brian Johnson (na foto em destaque). Tendo iniciado sua carreira no final dos anos 1950, na década seguinte ele passou a trabalhar com o lendário produtor Gerry Anderson, inicialmente como assistente de Derek Meddings e depois como diretor de segunda unidade em séries de marionete clássicas como Supercarro, Fireball XL5, Stingray e Thunderbirds. Após um hiato que inclui trabalhos cinematográficos como o clássico 2001: Uma Odisseia no Espaço, Johnson retornou à produtora de Anderson Century 21, onde criou os icônicos modelos de naves espaciais da série Espaço: 1999. A partir da década de 1970 ele participou na criação de efeitos visuais de outros filmes memoráveis de ficção científica, inclusive conquistando o Oscar por Alien – O Oitavo Passageiro e Star Wars Episódio V: O Império Contra-Ataca. Outros créditos de Johnson no cinema incluem Quando os Dinossauros Dominavam a Terra, O Dragão e o Feiticeiro, A História Sem Fim e Coração de Dragão.

We find a glowy rock.
It is haunted.

The amount of model work in this series is amazing. And it seems like the writing does pick up a little in the 2nd season (I'm just on the 2nd episode, though).

Well, well. Episode 25 has all new titles, that I don't remember at all. I guess I have started Season 2.

I think they've upgraded their model photography a bit, too.

Oh look! Brian Blessed is back.

Joan Collins appeared on this as well as Star Trek. Took me awhile to recognize her, but her voice and line delivery are distinctive.

As a rule of thumb, it bodes ill when the word "brain" appears in an SF series title. 🤨

Ooh... foamy bubble effects incoming.

One thing I'm noticing in #Space1999 is a degree of batching of plots and effects: they get a theme and then do two or three episodes based on it together. And once they figure out a way to do certain shots, they reuse it.

The understanding of physics continues to be hilariously bad: "not even wrong" (because it doesn't make enough sense to rise to the level of mere wrongness).

Their effects and stunts have improved by episode 15 or so. I get the impression that a lot of the plots are just excuses to set these up.
