(1979)
A 20th Century astronaut is transported through time to the 25th Century, where his "old" habits first amuse then come to the aid of the people of the future. Written by Rob Hartill In 1987, Capt. William "Buck" Rogers, on a space mission to launch a probe, is accidently put into suspended animation in an orbit that only returns his shuttle to our solar system 500 years later. His dormant ship is captured by an alien force called the Draconians, led by Princess Ardala. Reviving him, they trick him into returning to Earth after secretly planting a tracer on his shuttle to learn the path through Earth's defence barrier. The Terran Space Force intercepts him and guide him in. Now, Buck Rogers must adjust to this new time, address the suspicions of the Terrans who are convinced he is a spy and protect Earth from the threat that the Draconians secretly pose.
