En 1999, la Terre entrepose ses déchets nucléaires sur la Lune où est déjà installée la base lunaire "Alpha". Le 13 septembre, une explosion de ces stocks provoque une telle réaction en chaîne que la Lune quitte l’orbite terrestre puis le système solaire. Dans l’incapacité de regagner la Terre, les 311 survivants commandés par le charismatique commandant Koenig, errent sur l’astre dans le cosmos et affrontent toutes sortes de dangers.
Cosmos 1999 Notations et commentaires
- BrandonCF1 août 2025Why I waited until 2025 to watch this show I'll never know. A great transition from Star Trek into the likes of Buck Rogers in the 25th Century and Battle Star Galactica. The 1st season is definitley better than the 2nd, but in it's entirety the show is great. If you like 70's sci-fi, you'll like this.
- flavo436 décembre 2025Space: 1999 (1975–77) was one of the most ambitious sci-fi series of its era, built around the striking premise of Moonbase Alpha hurtling through space after a cataclysmic explosion. The show impressed with its incredible model work, practical effects, and a strong cast led by Martin Landau and Barbara Bain, giving it a cinematic quality rare for television at the time. Some episodes delivered compelling stories and intriguing explorations of survival and human resilience, but the series often slipped into a formula of “alien or disaster of the week,” which diluted its narrative strength. While not always realistic, it did attempt to ground certain aspects in reason, reflecting the era’s fascination with science and futurism. Ultimately, the show captured the eccentric spirit of the 1970s but struggled to sustain momentum. Still, Space: 1999 remains a cult classic, remembered for its ambition and visual achievements.
