Episode 1 - Pilot (1)
Air Date: Sep 9, 1996
A planned shuttle launch is scrubbed when it is learned that a Russian satellite, carrying an unusually large nuclear reactor, is out of control and in a slow orbiting descent that will see it crash somewhere along the eastern seaboard of the United States. Making use of the already prepped-for-launch shuttle, Americans and Russians team up to capture the satellite and bring it back to earth aboard the shuttle.
