Leftcoastzen @cinfhen No , that was Man who fell to Earth, I think. I read there may be a TV series in the works, but no movie version. 6y
Cinfhen It seems so familiar!!!! 🤨🧐🤔 6y
TrishB I enjoyed this book 👍🏻 6y
Bklover @Leftcoastzen @Cinfhen The only thing I remember is “Grokking”. 🤨🧐😏 6y

It‘s been a long day. And for some reason my mind keeps heading for this little gem. Which is absolutely not #aspacemancametravelling - but there are so many similarities between deep space exploration & deep sea exploration... Honest! Cousteau invented the aqualung, which looks incredibly spaceman-like. Doesn‘t it?! 👨‍🚀

#winterwonderland

TrishB Works for me 😁😁 6y
rockpools @TrishB You‘re too kind! 6y
Velvetfur Deep space and deep sea are definitely comparable, as humans have no idea what's really out there, or down there, despite what they've already explored. Both things are too vast 😊 6y

MayJasper I like 😊 6y
Ruthiella Agree that deep sea and outer space are comparable! Great choice!😀 6y
batsy Chiming in with others—love the connection. Vast, mysterious spaces... 6y
Cinfhen I like where your tired brain went!!! And I think @Velvetfur really hit the nail on the head 🔭🦠🚀⚓️ 6y

Here's a book that i plan to read in 2019. About stalkers finding artefacts left by aliens on earth.
I also picked up the film in a local shop - i don't read a lot of sci fi but the these editions of so attractive i may think about a sci fi a-z 👽

Oryx I have this same copy, picked up recently. Hoping to get to it next year too! 6y
batsy I plan to read this someday (soon!) and watch Stalker 🙌🏽 6y

I don't read much scifi, so this show is what came to mind for #aspacemancametravelling. I was pretty little when it first aired but remember being fascinated by Mork from Ork. Nanu Nanu. 📺📺
(And since I'm on the subject of tv shows from childhood, RIP Penny Marshall. 😔 I loved, loved, loved Laverne and Shirley! 👯‍♀️)
#winterwonderland @Cinfhen @TrishB

TrishB That‘s a blast from the past..... 6y
Leftcoastzen Yep , that Happy Days spin-off industrial complex was pretty awesome! Rip Penny! Do the deep dive , she was a secretary on the Odd Couple, she was so good! 6y
Andrew65 Mork Calling Orson, Mork Calling Orson, Come in Orson! Loved this and loved Robin! 6y

#ASpacemanCameTravelling, found a space girl and fell in love. Had some light fun, you know, like making an intense inter-species-war even more intense, getting pregnant, being hunted by insane people, just your everyday fun and games 🙃

#WinterWonderland

TrishB Not read any of these! 6y
Kalalalatja @TrishB I love them, and the art is gorgeous 👌 6y

When the commander of Moon Base Alpha mysteriously vanishes, 12-year-old Dash Gibson goes travelling in space to solve the mystery.

An entertaining book, according to my son.
