Trivia
The Show
- It's debatable that this episode confirms the existence of extraterrestrials, as the flying craft is never actually explained. However, the comic book Time and Space (with story title "One Giant Leap") goes further and confirms it by having Sam leap into an alien, although the canonicity is questionable.
