They are “going” to Proxima Centari NOT MARS

[xero]

Sounds like another Valt-tech experiment from fallout 🤔

[Winderia]

I rememeber this. It was supposed to be a show, but it didn't took off. It could have been great.

[RavynArcadia]

Did you even watch the show? They weren't going to Mars FFS. They were going to the nearest solar system. It wouldn't take 50 years to get to Mars.

[joseeduardobolisfortes]

The ship don't went to Mars but Proxima Centauri; please, correct the title. I clicked here expected a totally different movie. This one, I already saw.

[yojimbo]

Sigh, this show had so much potential.

[piotr]

It was an amazing show. I don't understand why it didn't get a 2nd season ☹

[wittyjoker]

At this point im convinced dude does 0 actual work in these and just asks an ai to write a summary. Doesnt even bother to double check the material.

[shakaama]

a project from 1950 has a woman in charge and a black man 2nd in command.
yeah sounds realistic

[Gripmagic]

So sad this show didn't take off, it was really good

[potassiumming]

it was going good until *magic* was added. lazy writing

[polosavage]

OMG I have been looking for this show forever this was a miniseries they brought out and it was supposed to be a TV show but it never made it past the initial episode, I don't understand why because this would have made an amazing show I really really wish this would have gone further than it did I hope someone manages to bring it back for real because I've been trying to figure out the name of it ever since I first saw it years all those ago!!

I remember this show. I’d rather sit through this short synopsis than have to watch all of those episodes. Which I mostly did.

Different strokes on different worlds with different gravity. Golf, baseball, football, javelin, shot put....etc. Going to notice the difference!

[TheoriginalBMT]

This one really messed me up with that ending. Really disappointed it didn't have a sequel season. BUT, maybe it's also for the best.

[Blastarr]

At first glance reminds me of an old Twilight Zone episode.

[lastpme]

The title is wrong. I remember watching this show and it was pretty good…it was a shame it didn’t get a second season.

[bbbf]

Going to nearest star - not Mars/
Is this some central rambling unintelligent articial 'intelligence' that churns out all of these type of garbage synopses?

[Jadyra]

Never heard the term "Spaceship Earth" I take it. Quite the concept.
