Edit
soundtrack for the opening credits is slightly different. Though the
narration is spoken by the same actor and has the same wording, it is
delivered here with slightly different pacing. This different version of
the opening credits also has a different recording of the music, easily
identifiable by a slightly more bombastic bass guitar in the 2491-era
portion of the title sequence. See more »

Factual errors: Buck Rogers is supposed to be a Captain in the Air Force, but he is wearing Navy wings. In fact he is not even wearing Naval Aviator (pilot) wings, he is wearing Naval Flight Officer (navigator) wings. See more »Crazy Credits
