Thanks for the appreciation. It was shot essentially in one hot day last July with lots of post production work for a Space: 1999 convention in L.A. -- Alpha: 2012. Nick Tate, Anton Philips and Prestis Hancock were in the audience and really enjoyed it.

This was great fun to watch, very enjoyable.

I like that the models for the target drones were taken from the previous Gerry Anderson series UFO!

Wow. Just found this little video -- loved every moment. Especially the use of the actual "broadcast" from Earth as seen in "Breakaway".

It's taken me 6 years to stumble across this... It's AMAZING!!! I would love to see more, but I guess it's too late now. A pity, because this was simply FANTASTIC!

Nice tribute to Space 1999 . I am also a great fan .

This was very sweet. A loving tribute to Space:1999 (Hawks!), a fine nod to UFO, and a good story to boot.

It actually brought me to tears. I'd forgotten how much I love those old shows.

What a great job. A well deserved tribute to Space 1999,

This was superb, not only as a palimpsest of "Breakaway," but also for integrating 1999 with UFO -- and giving us a look at why the Hawks were built (they were FAR better than the Interceptors, which had limited mobility and could fire only one missile).

This is cool. I'd LOVE to see a new series, maybe Space 2099? I keep imagining it with proper physics, and continuing the excellent production design of 1999.

It's been 7 years since the last comment was made on this. I have to say, this was still a great achievement!

This is absolutely great, loved it. We did not get to see this kind of personal reaction to the big "breakaway" event in the original series & this totally works on all levels. Just awesome. Wish there could be more!

Simply loved it!! This was a great tribute to space 1999. Keep up the good work

I was nine when Breakaway first aired on TV! Space:1999 had a HUGE impact on my outlook of TV and how fantastic imagination could be. I still love this show, as much as any show ever, and even Season 2, when it was not nearly as cool. I have all the episodes on DVD, with the special behind-the-scenes DVD's as well. I also have a Gerry Anderson highly detailed Eagle model that I proudly display with my DVD's! This short film was really good, and showed what happened right before Breakaway! Great job to all involved!

Nicely done! Good special effects and model!!!! Good tribute to the show.

Absolutely incredible! Can believe I haven't seen this one before. The sets were a little bit large and maybe too dark, but the love you've put into this project is evident throughout the effort. Well done!👍👍👍👍

I agree this is the best fan tribute I have seen that tributes ufo and space 1999. Well done everyone involved.

WOW amazing job guys! I have been working on a Space 1999 fan film for last 6 or 7 months, I am just pecking away at is scene by scene, it should be a full length episode when its done.

Great video!!!!! SPACE 1999 WAS one of my favorite shows growing up!!!!!!

I recall seeing this AT Alpha 2012 and Brittany Martz was very nice, looking a lot younger than her then actual age of 21. The actual Malice webseries was also very well done!

Nicely done! Great SFX and the story enter-twinning at the edges of Breakaway was really cool. The premise of Space 1999 was ridiculous with the FTL moon that slowed down for weekly adventures and then sped up again for no reason was confusing to say the least but Alpha the base and the Eagles (and the Mk IX Hawk) and the top flight actors always made the slightly mediocre scripts shine to an amazing level. Great to see people still enjoying Space 1999 and playing with the universe. I loved the nod towards UFO as well!

Best animation of Space 1999... almost like watching the original!!! Kudos...

Oh my God, I really enjoyed this episode.🛰👽🛸🛰👽🛸👽

Lets keep 1999 alive.

This is the most awesome Space: 1999 fan video I have seen. Thanks so much for expanding the universe a little and making another story for those of us who wondered about what happened on that fateful day in 1999.

I love how you kept your VFX true to the original. The Eagle spinning away as well as the Meta Probeship while Spacedock Centuri inexplicably explodes. I wasn't expecting UFO drones, that sound still gives me chills 44 years after I first saw it. Kudos!

This is great! I particularly liked your inclusion of Hans Zimmer/James Newton Howard’s music toward the end. 😀

Amazing job for a YT video! Great job.

That was great and would fit perfectly into the Space: 1999 timeline, the premise could be integrated into any future reboot of the show, fingers crossed we see more of this in the future.

Of particular appreciation from me is the following - thank you for not changing the scene every .4sec It is very nice to be able to watch something that does not put me into a twitching fit on the floor ; )

Why can't they go home? Still, nice pilot for a future series.Should be seriously considered for proper funding.

I have only just found this in May 2020 .. It is a wonderful effort, and I would like to see more? Although that train has probably left the station by now? One must remember that 1999 was set 19 years after the UFO timeline, so the Hawks are the "updated" Shado interceptor.. It stands to reason that the "target drones" would be simulated UFO ships.. Great attention to storyline? Straker would have loved them? I am not usually enthused by CG Animations of what were models in the TV shows. But this was outstanding work, done at a similar pace to the original series.. A proper tribute indeed? I intend to make Anderson productions at least aware of this great work. (maybe someone will take notice)? Thank you for the great work...

Excellent work, fantastic special effects .. thank you very much for posting this. Space 1999 was always my favorite sci-fi show .. this was done so well it could have been part of an actual episode.

I keep watching this over and over absolutely fantastic I can't thank you enough for making such a fine short film of course being selfish we still more but I absolutely love it thank you so much for creating it going to fan since I was watching this and the original run when I was 7 years old

I was hoping the line would be "Let's go to Meta." They never did follow up on that after breakaway.

I just stumbled onto this here in 2018. I am seriously impressed!

Holy Crap! They even include the UFO's from UFO although in this they're target drones

I have been a trek fan for decades. But before I got hooked on trek, I was a 99-er. I loved the show. Still do. They seriously need to reboot this. Let's face it, if Lost in Space can be rebooted twice, why not Space 1999?

Awesome and Wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great short movie. Loved the acting, and the sfx. The Hawks were beautiful, and I liked how you used UFOs as the drones. Reverse engineered by Shado by any chance?

The talent is out there, space 1999/UFO can be recreated once more, we need it now more than ever
