Whilst exploring a meteorite, the Zeroids come across a huge nugget of gold. They bring it back to Hawknest, unaware that it is actually a bomb created by Zelda. Upon it's arrival in Hawknest, the bomb is activated by Zelda. Ninestein manages to get the bomb as far from Hawknest as he can, but the ensuing explosion claims his life... or does it?
Welcome to the Terrahawks guide at TV.com. Terrahawks was created by Gerry Anderson and Christopher Burr as a new science-fiction puppet show for kids. Anderson, having created such hits as Thunderbirds, Stingray, Captain Scarlet Joe 90, and U.F.O, was confident that this show would prove a… More huge hit with the fan base he had established in the 60's, and 70's, with his afore-mentioned earlier shows. He was right. It is the earth year 2020. Android forces from the Planet Guk have taken over the red planet Mars, to use as a base from where to launch their planned invasion of earth. Under the command of the witch-like Zelda , the evil Machines plot nothing less than the extinction of the Human Race! Earth's only line of defense is the Terrahawks , an elite defense force, created [and commanded by] a clone of the renowned scientist Dr. Tiger Ninestien , to counter the threat of Zelda's invasion fleet. Making up the team are Dr. Mary Falconer , Captain Kate Kestrol , Lt. Hawkeye , Space Operative Lt. Hiro , and the Zeroids (Orb-Shaped drones with emotion-chips fused into their hardware, created to act as Field operatives, If they wish, they can join together and work as one to accomplish a certain task. They are commanded in the Field by the pompous, but strict, Sgt. Major Zero, a Zeroid with a literal chip on his shoulder, and a major pain in Ninestein's rear), Armed with some of the most sophisticated battle vehicles ever devised, the Terrahawks seek to drive back the forces of Zelda with fierce determination. Will they succeed? Who can say? But be sure of one thing.. EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED!
