What happens

Thunderbirds 2086 is the English dubbed version of the Japanese anime series Scientific Rescue Team Technoboyger (科学救助隊テクノボイジャー, Kagaku Kyūjo Tai Tekunoboijā), loosely inspired by the original Gerry Anderson Supermarionation series Thunderbirds. The English dub was produced by ITC Entertainment, the original production company for Thunderbirds, although Gerry Anderson and Sylvia Anderson were not involved. The series includes music and sound effects from Thunderbirds and Anderson's other series: Stingray, Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, Joe 90, UFO, and Space: 1999. A total of 24 episodes were produced, but only 18 were broadcast on Fuji TV in 1982. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
