Action In Space

1999

At the dawn of the 21st Century, 300 men and women from Earth maintain an early warning system on the Moon. Aliens launch a devastating thermonuclear attack on the far side of the moon redistributing critical forcefields. The gravitational relationship of Earth and Moon is abruptly negated and the Moon is violently thrust out of orbit, marooning the 300 earth men on a world adrift in outer space on an endless odyssey to the infinite regions of the farthest galaxies.
