Salvage 1 - Golden Orbit (1979)

There's two suits from this Salvage 1 two part story; The Golden Orbit.  There's the usual Vulture crew outfits as seen in a previous blog post and there is also that old favourite, the Men Into Space helmet and suit combo which has just been everywhere.

Images are not the best but good enough to recognise what we're looking at. I watched a few episodes back in the day but nothing really ever stuck in the memory.  Not a bad show it just didn't really have many directions to go in.

Thanks for the pointer Andy, another new one to me

Salvage 1 (1979)

Salvage 1 was an American series from 1979.  And for those that can't recall this very forgettable of TV shows it concerned Harry Broderick the owner the Jettison Scrap and Salvage Company who is a specialist in reclaiming trash and junk to sell for scrap. His dream haul is to recover the equipment left on the moon during the Apollo Program.  He finds himself an astronaut and a rocket fuel expert and he builds himself his very own scrap spaceship called the Vulture. The opening premise is quite good but beyond that it runs out of ideas fairly swiftly.

Soon they'll be rounding up wild horses and trying to make it rain.
