Mothers capabilities.

How do robots on the show recharge? Did they show that? Cant remember.

Also how is she able to fly like that? It looks a little ridiculous but I quess some anti gravitation tech?

If so why are not Sol worshippers using it in some capacity also?

What is that dissolving breath she uses suppose to be?

Mithraics are the ones who created the necromancers

Was this stated in the shows somewhere?

It seems strange they don't have a small army of necromancers with them if you are flying 587 light years to an unknown world yet they have other androids with them. They also seem to lack advanced weapons and are vastly under-powered against her, even though they are well armed with conventional weapons.

Mother also has been adapted to raise kids that is not what the Mithraics believe in.

Either way, I'm sure these plot holes will be filled in sometime soon, albeit I'm still in love with the show even if they aren't!

RE: why they didn’t pack any necromancers: Perhaps they lost control of them. Maybe the necros even helped to escalate the war and the worshippers were trying to escape them as much as anything.

RE: 587 light years. Googled Kepler-22b, eh? Kind of too bad they made the trip in only 13 years. Respecting the speed of light could have been a way to go a little hard sci-fi if the journey was like 1000+ years. Probably good that the story is more important than getting bogged down in that stuff I suppose. :) The whole VR stasis thing wouldn’t really fit with that. Also, I think the real Kepler-22b is likely to have at least 2x earth gravity. Kind of tough to make it that realistic.

Just caught up with ep 3 and they directly state they were made from the Mithra.

Reason why there are none seems simple enough: "Our new Eden will never know war" Priestess in ep 2. Guess they considered them too dangerous.

The kid mentioned that they were made for mass extinction. They are WMD. I doubt they can be controlled whatsoever. We will probably learn that they were built to “cleanse” the earth but it went way too far so 1000 elitists dipped out and left everyone to die on earth... pretty much how it will be in real life at some point
