The Cape

Pilot (2) (1x2)

Air date: Sep 09, 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.
