Exploring a museum on the planet Xeros, the travellers discover they are invisible. The Doctor deduces that the TARDIS has jumped a time track and can see their own future.

Cliffhanger: having temporarily been frozen in time, the travellers discover their exhibits have vanished, and the Doctor realises that they have caught up with themselves in time ...

Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:

Wednesday 23rd December 1998:
SPACE: The Imagination Station http://www.spacecast.com/ and http://www.hwcn.com/~an933/spacedw.htm
Sunday at 8AM EST, Monday at 3:30AM - The Space Museum - episode 1 of 4
Monday to Thursday at 7:30AM - The Space Museum - the four episodes (The Space Museum, The Dimensions Of Time, The Search, The Final Phase)
Friday at 7:30AM - The Chase: The Executioners - episode 1 of 6

SPACE has reached an interesting crossroads, where the weekday episodes catch up with the Sunday shows and move ahead. As a result, episode 1 of The Space Museum gets 3 airings in a 24 hour period. Thank goodness it's the best episode of that offbeat story. Once the 1st Doctor and company survive the Museum (if they survive), they experience episode 1 of The Chase, where a vacation is interrupted by something disturbing on the telly. Looking into the future at your own deaths and being chased by your oldest enemies. What a way to end the year!
