I’m not sure how I never noticed before that Barbara Bain’s birthday is also the day that the moon left Earth’s orbit in #Space1999.

That must have led to some humorous comments when they filmed that first episode.

(Happy 94th birthday to her today.)

ETA: Haha, apparently people are also marking this day as #BreakawayDay. New to me!

Ai niin. 13.9.1999 kuu syöksyi radaltaan ydinjätteiden räjähdettyä ja sinkoutui avaruuteen. Avaruusasema Alpha oli pikkukersana parasta mitä televisiosta tuli, vaikka se välillä olikin niin jännä, että piti katsella sohvan takaa 😊#tvseries #space1999 #breakawayday

Un amic m’ha recordat que divendres era el “Breakaway day.” Com sou molt joves, us en deixo un enllaç per referència 🤣
Va ser una sèrie impactant en el seu moment
