Power Rangers in Space picks up after the events of Power Rangers: Turbo, where the four former Turbo Rangers — T.J. (Ward), Carlos (Velasco), Ashley (Cruz) and Cassie (Ja Lee) — are pulled aboard the Astro Megaship, and later meet Andros (Khayman Lee), a Red Ranger from the planet KO-35. Andros becomes the new leader of the team, giving the former Turbo Rangers morphers to become the new Blue, Black, Yellow, and Pink Space Rangers. Astronema (Perkins) becomes the new main villain of the series, who is later identified to be Andros' long lost sister, Karone. Later in the season, Andros' former teammate Zhane (Nimmo) is unveiled, who is unfrozen after many years. At the end of the season, Andros shatters Zordon's tube to wipe out all evil, and Karone is restored to her normal self.
