@starchwreck1017.bsky.socialAlso, never forget, September 13, 1999, Breakaway Day. The day the moon broke out of Earth's orbit due to a nuclear waste accident to have weekly television adventures with Martin Landau and Barbara Bain. Never forget.

@beeblepete.bsky.socialHappy #BreakawayDay 😄 I remember only the toys from when I was a kid - I was already 21 when I found S2 on TV. Only saw Breakaway and Force of Life for the first time recently. I bought and adored the Big Finish remake when it came out though...
@selsijohn.bsky.socialI watched 2 episodes for #BreakawayDay I've seen Breakaway loads of times, but Earthbound only twice, so don't remember much. (It was a suggestion by someone on Facebook).
@immproject.bsky.socialAs we observe Space 1999 Breakaway Day, allow us to note that on an early episode of the IMMP podcast Matthew and Ian talked about this classic 1970s Gerry Anderson sci fi series.

#BreakawayDay
@mrawdon.bsky.socialHappy #BreakawayDay to those who celebrate.
@drjamesjteeth.bsky.social13 September. On this day in 1999 a thermonuclear detonation at the Moonbase Alpha nuclear disposal facility caused Earth’s moon to leave orbit. The Moon was rapidly ejected from the solar system.
@fitgeekuk.bsky.socialIt's #BreakawayDay... and if you don't have your DVD/bluray to hand, here's the abridged and subtly different take on it from the #Space1999 novel of the story

@kennardpj.bsky.socialHmm, Breakaway day. What to watch today?
Decisions… Decisions …
@gstephensonwx.bsky.socialIn between "Star Trek" and "Star Wars", we sci-fi fans had "Space 1999"...
The "Eagle" remains one of my favorite science fiction spaceships.

@sbisson.comRemembering the 311 this 27th anniversary of when we lost the moon.
@dewline.bsky.socialFor the #Space1999 fans here, may #BreakawayDay be kind to you.
@sharkster1701.bsky.socialI salute the men and women of Moonbase Alpha. May they rest in peace, and may their memory be a blessing.

@alexwilcock.bsky.socialOTD 1999: Massive nuclear dumps erupt on the Moon
The Moon is blasted out of orbit – taking Moonbase Alpha and all its crew far from Earth.
They will never get to experience the triumphs of Twenty-first Century human history.
The lucky, lucky sods.

@billyhopkinson.bsky.social@denisebreen.bsky.socialBy 1999, Earth had established a base on the moon, but unfortunately we were also storing volatile nuclear waste on the far side of the moon. #OTD in 1999, the waste exploded, sending the moon and Moonbase Alpha, and its 311 inhabitants, careening into space.
