 The Caldorian sleepership sits within the pressurized service area below |
 Alpha has been hurled through a time warp five years into the future. |
| Enroute to Earth, an alien spacecraft crashlands on the Moon. On board are six crewmembers in suspended animation. Upon awakening, their leader, Captain Zandor, tells Koenig that they are heading for Earth because their planet has been des- troyed. Since one of the aliens was kill- ed when his sleep casket was forced open, one Alphan will be allowed to return to Earth. Commissioner Simmonds, trapped on the Moon when it was blasted out of orbit, will stop at nothing to be the sixth mem- ber. Stealing Koenig's commlock, he enters the life support room and removes its power core. Alpha is then left with the choice of letting him go or facing death from lack or power and environment. Commissioner Simmonds: ROY DOTRICE Captain Zandor: CHRISTOPHER LEE |
Alpha passes through a rift in the fabric of the universe and is hurled across time and space. The only person to be physi- cally affected is Main Mission staff mem- ber Regina Kesslann. She begins to devel- op symptoms of sunburn and whimpers some- thing about seeing "two moons" in the sky. Miraculously, it is discovered that the Moon is returning to Earth in orbit! As it locks into orbit, Regina dies in the arms of the man she claims to be her husband-- Alan Carter! Suddenly, a second Moon is spotted with another Moonbase. The two bodies are on a collision course, so Koenig, Helena, and Carter probe the surface of the Earth--devastated from a radical shift in its axis--in an attempt to find a suitable site for relocating the Alphans. On the planet, however, they discover themselves, five years in the future. Regina Kesslann: JUDY GEESON |
