In 1497, five hundred years before the Jupiter-2 left for Alpha Centauri, Girolamo Savonarola convinced a number of his followers to burn a bunch of art and other luxuries during Mardi Gras in Florence. Known as the Bonfire of the Vanities, this event has long caused many to wonder what did we lose in the fire?

Unfortunately, the bonfire continues to this day, albeit under very different circumstances. A talented yet unknown author neglects to send in a manuscript because they're worried it will fail. An artist suffers a heart condition when they are but three brushstrokes into what would have been their greatest masterpiece. And an amazing and prolific TV writer completes two scripts for an epic sci-fi series, only for the show to be pulled before the scripts can be produced. This is where Irwin Allen's Lost in Space: The Lost Adventures comes in.
