Review MOONBASE 3: VIEW OF A DEAD PLANET - Episode 6

[Doctor Omega]

Your thoughts on this story....

Controversy surrounds the Arctic Sun Project, a plan to detonate a hydrogen bomb above the Arctic Circle to melt the icecaps and open up new land for development. When the project is initiated, all contact with Earth is lost as it becomes enveloped in a strange mist. The inhabitants of the Moon colonies struggle to come to terms with the possibility that Earth has been destroyed and they are all that's left of humanity.

 

[Doctor Omega]

Definitely the best episode imo - and a worthy standalone drama in it's own right - showing humanity's stoicism in the face of extinction.

A much under-rated series, that at least now is getting the appreciation that it never had at the time of broadcast.
