Good news for space cadets of all ages: Thunderbirds is back

by David Todd | Feb 11, 2013 | History | 0 comments

For those of us who grew up in the 1960s and 1970s some good news was revealed by Craig Hoyle on Flightglobal’s Dew Line blog. The Thunderbirds science fiction TV series is to return! F-A-B! The series and those other puppet and live action series from the Gerry Anderson’s Century 21 stable (Fireball XL5, UFO and Space 1999) have inspired many a space engineer of today. Hyperbola’s favourite episode was, of course, using Thunderbird 3 to rescue the error-prone spacewalker who was floating away to oblivion.
