Space: Above and Beyond (Season 1)

Space: Above and Beyond (1995) is a military sci-fi series you can watch online on iFILM. In the year 2063, humanity meets its first alien enemy, and raw Marine recruits are shipped into orbit to fight back.

The Wildcards — the 58th Squadron of the U.S. Marine Corps Space Aviator Cavalry — fly out of the carrier USS Saratoga against an enemy nobody understands. Set across 2063 and 2064, the show throws these rookies into both cockpits and ground combat on hostile worlds, where the survival odds stay grim.

Created by Glen Morgan and James Wong of The X-Files, it carried a darker, war-weary tone that drew comparisons to Starship Troopers years before that film existed. Fox pulled the plug after one season, yet a loyal cult keeps it alive. Great for fans of unglamorous military sci-fi. Stream every episode of Space: Above and Beyond online on iFILM.
