Space Nova S2 to launch onto screens this April
The animated adventure series Space Nova returns for a second season next month, premiering on ABC iview on Thursday 24 April.
Space adventuring siblings Jet and Adelaide Nova are back, along with their parents Josie and Hugo, and this season will see them come face-to-face with even more strange lifeforms, physics-defying phenomena and planets beyond their wildest dreams.
The Nova family are the first humans to meet intelligent extra-terrestrial life – the Stardustians. But while travelling with their new Stardustian friend, Ziggy, their convoy ship is attacked, throwing them off-course and stranding Ziggy in parts unknown. The powerful stardust explosion created during the event causes a dangerous imbalance in the universe, something only Ziggy could heal. The Novas’ new mission is clear: find Ziggy, whatever it takes!
Space Nova S2 will premiere on ABC iview at 6am Thursday 24 April and broadcast on ABC Entertains from Monday 28 April.
Catch up on Season 1 on ABC iview.
