Episode Summary
 
[x] Remove Ad
As the Moon approaches a surprisingly normal Earth-like planet, Terra Nova, the initial surveillance team is hit by an energy beam. When it touches down on the Moon, it has acquired an extra passenger: Dr. Russell's long-lost husband Lee, presumed dead. He warns that the planet ahead is inimical to the Alphans and Koenig is forced to choose whether to accept his advice or take a chance and evacuate to the planet.

Episode Quotes
 
Lee Russell: Nobody dies. Matter never dies, Helena. It changes its form. There are many forms of life in space. Many forms of death, too.
 
Koenig: More to the point, Kano. Have you computed how much older you'll be when we reach the last of those planets?
Kano: Two thousand, five hundred and forty-three years old to be exact, sir. Just thought you might like to know.
Koenig: Thank you, Kano.
