Alpha Observed
Intro
At various times, it is found aliens have been observing
Moonbase Alpha and/or
the Alphans
for some amount of time prior to an encounter.
This does not include occasions where
the Moon is observed for
some hours or days before the encounter,
but implication of a much longer period of time,
or where an alien sits and watches from close by
for some time before revealing his/her presence.

Examples
- "The Last Sunset" (Y1):
the people native to Ariel
"have been watching the progress of your
world since the beginning of time."
The "world" is presumably
Earth,
but the clear implication is they've
been watching the Moon as well.
- "The Taybor" (Y2):
Taybor has been "scanning" them for
"some little time," enough to know who
(e.g. -- and by how he calls them)
Commander Koenig,
Doctor Russell,
Mister Verdeschi, and
Maya are.
He also transfers
several objects into Alpha just before
he finally brings his ship into view.
- NANE:
Magus has
"been monitoring [the Alphans] for a long time"
and has
"worked out the pair bonding in great detail"
regarding the four Alphans
(John, Helena, Tony, and Maya)
he previously invited and trapped on the surface.
He shows a lot of knowledge about Earth and
claims to be several names familiar from Earth history.
