Your life and your quest end here.

If I were showrunner of a hypothetical Space: 2099, I'd have the moon leave orbit not as a result of a nuclear accident, but because of some kind of huge and deeply-buried alien technology that's been found and kept a secret by the military contingent (setting up a military/civilian conflict from the start) on the base. They set it off, the moon is thrown through a space warp to some seemingly random point in the universe... and from then on it warps again every 48/57/76.3 or whatever hours. If you're off the moon when it goes, you're stuck where you are forever, so there's a built-in timeclock to every episode. Need to see if this planet's habitable? Don't get captured by the locals. Investigating a derelict alien ship? Be quick about it. And of course, maybe the moon's course through the universe isn't as random as it seems...
Isn't that just Stargate Universe?

actually I wish there were less arc-based shows and more episodic ones because I would rather watch one show where they wrap the story up in an hour and then go do something else.
