Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires is a city located in the country of Argentina in South America. Buenos Aires played a large role in the 1997 sci-fi film Starship Troopers. It was the home of Johnny Rico, Carmen Ibanez and Dizzy Flores, who lived in the 23rd century. In the film, Buenos Aires was destroyed when an asteroid, sent by the Arachnids of Klendathu, fell through the atmosphere, obliterating a large portion of Argentina. Rico's parents were killed during this incident.

Buenos Aires plays an important part in the series four storyline from Torchwood called "Miracle Day". Buenos Aires was one of two sites where The Blessing could be found. The other was in Shanghai, China. Buenos Aires and Shanghai were antipodes of one another, which means they were located in exact opposite points of the Earth.
