Professor Victor Bergman is the name of a recurring character on the . The role was portrayed by Canadian actor Barry Morse . Victor is in mid 50s and serves as Moonbase Alpha's lead scientist, and as a close confidant and advisor to Commander Koenig . He is conversant with most of the scientific disciplines, and is something of a philosopher. He is also a noted astronomer, he discovered the planet Ultra in 1994 , as was mentioned in ''Dragon's Domain''. He also is very capable in Astrophysics and Physics in a broader sense (for example in ''Black Sun''). For some reason, in 1997 he was sent back to Earth from the Moonbase, but was back on Alpha by 1999 (noted in the episode ''Breakaway''). Professor Bergman had an artificial heart, which came up in the episodes ''Black Sun'', ''Force Of Life'', '' Guardian Of Piri '' and ''The Infernal Machine'' and was mentioned briefly in the second season episode '' Catacombs Of The Moon .'' Victor appeared in every episode the first series of Space: 1999, which aired in the 1975 - 1976 television season, but did not return for the second series. NOTE The fate of Professor Bergman is alluded to in a single line of the shooting script for '' The Metamorph '', when one character notes "One lousy spacesuit with a faulty helmet and Victor had to be in it." This scene was filmed, but cut from the final print. It is debatable whether this is the Canonical fate of Bergman. |
