"It was the dawn of the Third Age of Mankind ten years after the Earth-Minbari War The Babylon Project was a dream given form. Its goal: to prevent another war by creating a place where Humans and aliens could work out their differences peacefully. It's a port of call – home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanderers. Humans and aliens wrapped in two million, five-hundred thousand tons of spinning metal, all alone in the night. It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last best hope for peace. This is the story of the last of the Babylon stations. The year is 2258. The name of the place is Babylon 5".A five season space opera written by J. Michael Straczynsky.

bingeing this one again.. Still one of the best ever sci-fi series/ space operas ever done..
What does it mean when you say “opera’s” exactly, please excuse my ignorance.
like soap opera..
Space opera is a science fiction subgenre that features epic space adventures, interstellar conflicts, and often space warfare. Space operas are often set in inhospitable places for humans, and often include melodramatic and chivalrous romance.
Thank you!
season 3 aired 1996 yet somehow feels relevant with politics and society of today. first time i have first this since i was kid back in the 1990s when it first aired. there was this on there was star trek next gen, xfiles, star trek deep space nine, voyager, space precinct, sliders, seaquest dsv this was a good time to be a scifi fan
Good show !!It has bin many yrs since last watching this! Thanks , gonna start binge watching.
was an interesting, ambitious idea in its time, but dragged down by the episodic format, and basic writing
