For Labor Day weekend, Roy and I discuss the groovy space western “Moon Zero Two.” James Olson plays a down-on-his-luck explorer – the first astronaut on Mars – now busting his hump collecting salvage around the moon. The film also stars Catherine Schell (“Space: 1999”).

On Friday, our focus will be on the “Space: 1999” episode “The Black Sun,” in anticipation of the “Space: 1999” virtual convention, Destination: Moonbase Alpha, scheduled to stream all day on September 12. For more information, look here:

Roy and I will be taking our show on the road, with appearances at Trekonderoga, hosted by the Star Trek Original Series Set Tour in Ticonderoga, New York, September 24-26. The weekend’s star attraction will be Mr. Sulu himself, George Takei. More information about the three-day event here:

In the meantime, we’ll be playing in a nuclear waste dump on the far side of the moon, as we recollect the “Space: 1999” episode “The Black Sun,” on the next Roy’s Tie-Dye Sci-Fi Corner. What could possibly go wrong, when you join us in the comments section, as we livestream on Facebook, this Friday evening at 7:00 EDT?
