Adam's Ark now called Ascension
The SYFY Channel is bringing out a new TV series. In the 1960s a group of families is launched into space on a spacecraft called Ascension. The plot seems to resemble Glen A Larson's Adam's Ark. Adam's Ark became Battlestar Galactica.

Re: Adam's Ark now called Ascension
That crossed my mind when I saw the promo. I'm happy Syfy is trying to come back to making something with an element of quality. Don't know how it will turn out, but I will at least give it a try. Hope they get some good programs and good results.

Re: Adam's Ark now called Ascension
Yeah, David. I'm curious about it as well. I wonder if Glen Larson is involved with it? I hope it is good.

Re: Adam's Ark now called Ascension
Curious choice of the name - "Ascension". In Mormon lore, once humanity advances enough through study, meditation and discipline, our species is supposed to ascend to a god-like status, much like the beings on the Ship of Lights. "As you are now, we once were - as we are now, you may become", or something to that effect. This may very well be loosely tied to BSG. Color me intrigued...
