Space, admittedly is not one of the finer efforts of the X-Files. But with all episodes, I believe there is a silver lining. How can I recommend an episode that consists of an astronaut being possessed by the Mars' face? It's not easy, but I'll give it a go. First of all, toward the beginning of the episode, we get to see Mulder AND Scully eating sunflower seeds together. I don't remember if Scully joins Mulder in his favorite snack again in the series. Space shows Mulder's giddiness about NASA and the space program. This sets up a significant gift that Mulder gives Scully in a later season. It also has a few lines of funny Mulder and Scully dialog. That in itself is worth the price of admission. If you want to watch an interesting show about astronauts in trouble, watch Apollo 13, otherwise catch Space for some good Mulder/Scully moments.
