    1. Awesome! Another correct answer (and a difficult one, so far as I'm concerned...).

  10. 7. Buck Rogers?
    6. has me stumped. It's very Moonraker-ish, isn't it? wild guess: new Twilight Zone.

    Please reveal!

    1. Hi Brian,

      More excellent ids. #7 is from Buck Rogers indeed, "Space Vampire." And #6 is Moonraker-ish, to be sure, but it is not from the new Twilight Zone. I will reveal it before the end of the day, if no one guesses it! :)

      best,
      John

    John, excellent subject of sci-fi space stations. There are so many choices to post in the future too. I recognized the majority here, but too late to post an answer. However, #6 is the one I can not answer. I look forward to your answer.

    1. Hi SGB,

      #6 is an obscure one. It is from The Real Ghostbusters, an episode called "Aint NASA-sarily So."
