SFX footage from the World Backgrounds library. The library contains many alternative takes and longer shots (sometimes including clapperboards). A few examples have appeared on the Network DVDs bonus disc, but many have never been seen. Episode shots are outlined in red, all other shots from the library.
Probably the opening shot, described in the script as "Establishing shot of the Moon. CAMERA tracks so as to include a distant planet." Not seen in episode; we see static views of the Moon and planet instead.
Eagle lands to pick up Tony. 35 seconds (12 seconds static before Eagle appears in frame). Shot not used (we see it launch to take Tony to Alpha, but not land)
