Paradise
Paradise is not earth in the past, i have earthsearch 1 and 2 on CD and no reference is made to that. not only that but in earthsearch 2 they find the real earth I am therefore changing it back to the previous version. -- MrBiz5 18:06, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
Ahem, a good source on james follett's works: [1] it says nothing about Paradise being earth, i have not read the full book, but the plot is a novalisation of the radio series. the website also contains the text from the back of both books and it say no such thing. the other points above dont make much sense, earth is the third planet from our sun. its a different planet, for a start its in the Tersus 9 star cluster, the sky is a strong blue and is almost completly covered in water.-- MrBiz5 20:59, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
'Tersus 9' "Paradise is in the Tersus 9 star cluster in their nomenclature." A minor problem being that the Solar System isn't now (and hasn't been in the hindsight-able past) in anything that would be called a star cluster. Which is something you can forgive in a SF story written in the 1970s. AKarley ( talk) 02:22, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
I do indeed see what you are saying, however the entry in the article looks like you are saying that the earth in "planetfall" is paradise, it appears you are saying they went back in time to their earth. However i do feel that as most of that is more inferred, it should be under another heading as its not a plot element. it could make for a nice sub-heading.
Is this therefore written about more in the book? -- MrBiz5 23:29, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
Yep i noticed that bit from episode 2. I see how paradise is our earth in the past, However a feel the the elements that show this such as the Northern Lights, The ammount of water, the red planet mentioned by angel one being mars and the bibical links should perhaps be metioned in more detail under the plot, maybe as a sub-heading, this would help the article a great deal. I apoligize for my edits. I didn't quite see what you were getting at in article-- MrBiz5 23:41, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
Ever thought the planet we know as Mercury may have been destroyed/thrown out of orbit by the sun going nova? Also, in Mindwarp, they talk about a blue dome (and that is the planet that Challenger set out from), with lots of water, which sounds pretty much like our Earth. Kyros sounds like Mars. I'm pretty certain that what they call Earth, is the same as our Earth and Paradise is an Earth-type planet somewhere else. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 148.197.109.193 ( talk) 22:23, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
Currently we have separate articles for the two programmes (Earthsearch and Earthsearch II) with the original cast. However, the info boxes talk about two series which might suggest we should have one article which covers both series?-- Peter cohen ( talk) 12:13, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
I agree - the introduction, info box, cast and engineering sections are essentially the same, with only the story section being different. 米 ( talk) 10:44, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
OK, who's gonna do it?-- RicHard-59 ( talk) 03:17, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
