Why did Zordon leave Earth?
 

Its even more baffling than when he let the MMPR era Rangers just leave during a conflict. He left the planet itself ,just to go home.

Zordon's location had been compromised after Rita's escape in season 1. It only brought more more bad guys to Earth. And worse escalated the conflict between the UAE and the forces of good Zordon had to get bwck to Eltar for the sake of the galaxy. And really did Earth a favor, Spector would have invaded. Plus Dimitria was a good mentor to get the zRangers out of their comfort zone to become stronger and independent. Which they would need to be if anything happened to Zordon.

Saban decidee that Zordon 's time on the show was over.

It likely wasn't Saban whon made the call, but I wonder why Bob left the series? Especially with him coming back for am re-occurring role in Space.

The quest to find Zordon in Space would have meant movie if he had stayed to mentor the second Turbo Team. Instead he was just some guy that was there when they got their powers, who they heard was a big deal.

It didn't really matter since the quest meant something to the viewer and was treated like a big deal for the newbies. And it was implied Andros had a prior protege type relationship with Zordon.

Plus its not like its a stretch to see that the Turbos had been told that he was a big deal. Just like how they were briefed on Divatox and the past villains.

Re: Why did Zordon leave Earth?
 

New Rangers in the early seasons were commonly briefed off screen about those type of things.

Re: Why did Zordon leave Earth?
 

The INS finally caught up with him after all those years of recruiting random teenagers to be Rangers, and the events of Alpha's magical Christmas.

Serious answer maybe he had some psychic vision of his own death, and wanted to go home one last time before it happened.

Re: Why did Zordon leave Earth?
 

not always since the first replacements hadn't been told about Scorpina

LOL very funny.

Yes your serious answer is probably the most accurate perhaps he got a vision of what the Blue Senturion's Millennium Message was supposed to be telling Dimitria before the end of it became unplayable to the chip being damaged.
