2001 - A Space Odyssey er Stanley Kubricks imponerende, Oscar®-vindende* mesterværk, der på ypperlig vis skildrer kampen mellem mennesket og maskinerne, og som dristigt og medrivende lader musik og bevægelse gå op i en højere enhed. Kubrick (som skrev filmmanuskriptet sammen med Arthur C. Clarke) tager os først med til en præhistorisk fortid, hvor jorden er befolket af aber, for derefter at springe flere årtusinder frem i tiden (ved hjælp af et af filmhistoriens mest utrolige klip) til rumtiden for til sidst at sende astronauten Bowman (Keir Dullea) ud i rummets uendelige vidder – måske helt ud i udødeligheden. "Open the pod bay doors, HAL" - og lad en utrolig rejse tage sin begyndelse.

Jupiter Moon was a science fiction television series first broadcast by British Satellite Broadcasting's Galaxy Channel from 26 March 1990 until December the same year. 150 episodes were commissioned, but only the first 108 were broadcast by BSB. It was commissioned to fulfill the perceived need for a soap opera in BSB's line-up and, as such, it was shown three times a week, with an omnibus edition at weekends. The series was curtailed owing to the merger between BSB and Sky Television plc and the subsequent cessation of the Galaxy Channel, although the later episodes were eventually shown in the UK on the Sci Fi Channel between 22 January and 19 February 1996. The soap was screened on GBC TV ahead of its premiere on BSB's own Galaxy channel. The soap was seen in the British Overseas Territory every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at 730pm, having taken the slot formerly occupied by Eastenders which had become too expensive for GBC TV.

Space Island One is a British/German science fiction television series that ran for 26 episodes beginning in 1998. A co-production between the UK's Sky One channel and the German Vox channel, it starred Judy Loe as Kathryn McTiernan, the commander of the multinational crew of the space station Unity. Described as “a mix of Moonbase 3 and Jupiter Moon, but more turgid than either, other sources describe it as "The best science fiction show you've never heard of… The show unflinchingly looks at the implications of for-profit science… and provides the most realistic look ever at life in space, including bone-mass loss. A few episodes are dull, but the show is often surprisingly weird and fun… It also features some of the most complex, believable characters of any television show". Apart from the show's creator, Andrew MacLear, other script-writers for the show included well known TV writer P. J. Hammond, acclaimed science fiction novelist Stephen Baxter and young adult writer Andrew Lane.
