Disney JuniorThis February, Disney Junior counts down to blast off with the premiere of animated adventure series Miles From Tomorrow. Debuting Saturday, February 21 at 6:55 p.m. ET, the intergalactic comedy incorporates unique space and science facts into storylines that chart the outer space missions of young adventurer Miles Callisto and his family as they help connect the galaxy on behalf of the Tomorrowland Transit Authority.

In the premiere episode “Runaway Shuttle/ Surfin’ the Whirlpool,” Miles and Merc rescue a trapped pilot before his ship crashes into Io, Jupiter’s moon. Then, Miles and Leo must work together to escape the Zuma Whirlpool waves on a father/son surf trip. Following the series debut, new episodes of Miles from Tomorrowland will air in its regular timeslot Sundays at 10 a.m. ET. Disney Junior OnDemand will also offer new episodes of the series as they become available weekly beginning March 6.
