Operation Exodus in ATAP
Intro
In "Another Time, Another Place",
there are actually two cases of
Operation Exodus being
initiated or strongly considered.
An alternate reality splits from the main timeline,
and then the two encounter each other.
The alternates are listed first below,
then the main timeline Alphans.

Cases
- The alternate Alphans,
already back at an alternate Earth for some years,
obviously started and completed Operation Exodus --
and beyond, into full settlement,
even at the cost of some -- and then all --
spaceflight capability.
There are small settlements scattered all over
the Santa Maria valley, though only one
(with alternates of at least: Paul, Victor, Sandra, Helena)
is shown in the episode.
This settlement also has at least two children
(those of Paul and Sandra) of a few years of age,
suggesting other settlements likewise have children.
- The main timeline Alphans also strongly consider Exodus,
as they fear the collision of the two Moons over Earth.
However, the two groups nearly get in a fight over it,
due to the likelihood of many deaths due to
apparent incompatibility among doppelgangers.
The mainline Alphans are eventually argued out of it
(esp. by the alternate Victor, but others as well),
and the three mainline Alphans return to base,
cancelling their Exodus plans.
They survive, as the two Moons re-merge into one
and the one is flung back into deep space
(and back to their own reality).
