Pioneer One – S1E03 – Alone in the Night

Pioneer One is a free (licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial Share Alike license) series. They recently published their third episode on torrent networks and are raising money to produce the upcoming episodes. For more information, see their official page @vodo.net: http://vodo.net/pioneerone.

Synopsis:

A mysterious spaceship has entered Earth’s atmosphere. A US Department of Homeland Security investigation has uncovered a live human being in a Soviet space suit in an unstable condition. A note in Russian, found at the crash site, claims the man is the child of cosmonauts living at a base on Mars.

Now quarantined to the Calgary base for two weeks, Taylor and his team have bought time to get answers from the supposed Martian cosmonaut. But who can get him to talk?

Since it can be uncomfortable to use peer-to-peer on some networks, I mirrored the episode on megaupload (merge using lxsplit or hjsplit):

A little, calm note to the series makers: WHY DON’T YOU COMPRESS THE STANDARD RESOLUTION IN X264 TOO? X264 DOESN’T NEED 720P TO WORK, FFFS!
