Trivia for this Episode
Footage mostly adapted from Megaranger episode 02 for the simudeck fight footage with the Crateries and the monster, back to episode 01 again for the shuttle taking off from Earth / shuttle launch pad explosions and the Ecliptor battle, episode 13 for additional Ecliptor footage, then backtracks to episode 08 for the Astro Megazord vs. Ecliptor battle.
Although never confirmed in the show, the Surf Spot was likely a replacement/remodel for Ernie's Gym and Juice Bar. Though no mention of Jermone Stone is mentioned or if Adelle directly tookover from him.
Fox Kids promoted this episode as a setup to the "biggest event in Fox Kids history". The shot at the end of the episode with New York City was lifted from "Ninja Turtles: the Next Mutation".
