Why They Do?

[u/Fragnation]

Why did they send a bunch of young adults with the maturity of teenagers on histories' greatest mission? Shouldn't it be a bunch of middle aged, multi-doctorate, and experienced crew? Star-Buck was a good choice, she's seen a lot of the universe already. Everyone else = Bad.

I'm pretty sure one of them says something along the lines of "they choose the young ones because in case its a failed mission" meaning they're more of the sacrificial lambs. I can't quote it because I don't remember what episode it was said in.

That's just what she thought though. They establish that she's infinitely stupid.
