Jupiter Moon was a science fiction television series first broadcast by British Satellite Broadcasting's Galaxy Channel from 26 March 1990 until December the same year. 150 episodes were commissioned, but only the first 108 were broadcast by BSB. It was commissioned to fulfill the perceived need for a soap opera in BSB's line-up and, as such, it was shown three times a week, with an omnibus edition at weekends. In the year 2050, the spaceship Ilea lies in semi-permanent orbit above the space city on Jupiter's moon Callisto. The Ilea is home to a university and many of the main plot strands revolve around the students, helping the programme to deal with more mundane issues despite its far-flung setting. A secondary plot deals with an attempt to travel to the stars known as the Daedalus Project.

Rosie Greenwood places Gantry 4 in quarantine, but Space City Medical Centre advise that Victoria's calcium deficiency was caused by her nine-month trip from Earth, not a virus. An electrical storm over Io cuts off communications. Charles Brelan thinks that the college is a waste of valuable resources. Finbow Lewis discusses the scanner readings with Captain Eliot Creasy and Brelan, who dismiss his concerns and blame a faulty scanner.
