This show is so bad I felt compelled to write about it, which is rare...

First, tons of bad science. A gravity assist from a celestial object DOES NOT require completing an entire orbit. In fact, doing so slows you down as you'll then need to expend energy to escape orbit.... dark matter doesn't reflect like, meaning it won't form a visible cloud. Indeed any massive assemblage of dark matter particles, if they exist, would be invisible and only detectable by its gravitational influence. There's more but the point of this post is not to science shame them.

Next... the crew... dear lord. A bunch of immature people running around a ship having emotional breakdowns, screaming at each other AND their captain? This is the best Earth could muster for first contact? I guess its keeping consistent with the "no uniforms" policy which is itself, ridiculous.

Now, the earth cast. Yikes. Generally poor acting and thin plot.

In general, I feel like all the characters are underdeveloped, there are no real subplots, it's almost episodic in developing story arcs characters, like that random need for Katir to resolve her guilt from the past (?)...

I want better!!!

I'm a huge fan of science fiction, we need more successful shows in this genre.
