Spaceship S.O.S. was a short story printed in TV Century 21 that contained elements from the Doctor Who universe. Framed as the front page of an in-universe periodical, the titular article instead made reference to the Fireball XL5 comic story The Giant Ant Invasion, a part of a multi-series crossover with the DWU.

- Animal expedition vessel AE7 is returning from a zoological survey on the Planet Zeus.
- Colonel Zodiac has reported that the messages received so far suggest that the animals have broken free and are attacking the crew but the chief spokesman of the World Zoological Authorities, Doctor Chin Yen Mu, told TV 21's reporter "There are only a few mice, butterflies and creatures of similar size on AE7 and even if these did break loose, what harm could small things like that do to anyone?".
- Phones has reported explosions from the control room of Marineville's Tracking Station 17.
- Stingray is investigating mysterious hauntings at the tracking station island which have happened over the past few weeks and ultimately drove the station crew to desert the island completely. It is unknown if the explosions are connected to the hauntings.
