'From Here To Infinity' is the 6th produced and the 10th broadcast episode of Terrahawks.

From Here To Infinity/Transcript

Plot[]

An old fashioned space probe from 1999 has had its course altered by the gravity of other celestial bodies and is now heading on a course back towards earth. Only problem is the nuclear rocket motor onboard will contaminate the entire atmosphere when it re-enters. Terrahawks immediately launch into action to take care of the situation, but perhaps this mission will be too much to handle for a certain Sergeant Major Zero.

Guests

  • Colonel Johnson - Jeremy Hitchen
  • XK20 Pilot - Jeremy Hitchen

Trivia[]

  • The name of the Alpha Probe and it's launch date of 1999 are a reference to both Space:1999 and Moonbase Alpha of that series.
  • The script for this episode details interactions between Mary and Ninestein, HUDSON and Colonel Johnson and extended dialogue for Zelda that does not appear in the final episode.
  • This episode establishes that the human race in Terrahawks is at a much more technologically advanced stage than typical Anderson affair with references to Space Liners far in excess of the Alpha probe's size.
  • This is the first episode where Sergeant-Major Zero and Space Sergeant 101 meet in person.

Goofs[]

  • The way Zero says his line "You'd better get your circuits tested" seems to indicate that 101 had made a similar comment towards Zero earlier, but we do not hear this at all.
