I did miss the science-heavy elements from earlier in the show in this season and I have a few issues with pacing of this season, but I found the season to be quite enjoyable overall. The split-cour feels rough given where we left off in this episode, but at least we have confirmation of a second half in October. The acquisition of a catalyst for continuous nitric acid production should be a big boon, I’ll be curious to see how exactly they manage to depetrify the ship’s crew, as many of them seem to be damaged. They were meticulous about reassembly earlier.

This show always makes me teary eyed 😢
