Lost in Space

Pressurized - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Judy is trying to keep Evan alive in the vehicle, sometimes there is a seat belt across his chest, and other times it is gone. (00:28:00)

Eulogy - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: Don West is wearing Dr. Smith's necklace, even though it was lost in the storm. The necklace is then not there or removed in the next shot. (00:31:30)

Stuck - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: At about the 30-minute mark, right after Judy and Maureen have a heart about being the perfect daughter, Maureen says "you have to get out of here." When she says this, she slips out of her harness and her shoulders come loose, which is the only reason the two can't leave the ship easily. The next shot we see of Maureen she is back in her harness. (00:30:10)

Run - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: When Judy is talking with Victor Chariot 8 is on the right side of the C19, then it is on the left side almost immediately.

Trajectory - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: When John is under the panel with Will, right before Will hands him the flashlight, the way Will is gripping the flashlight changes between shots. His pinky is either on top or underneath.

Impact - S1-E1

Other mistake: Right at the start, as they're crashing, the computer narrates their rapidly-dropping altitude in feet. But the "altitude" dial we're shown is in metres. Most noticeable as they cross the 3,000 mark, when the computer voice and the height say/show the same number at the same time, despite the different units. 3,000m would be more like 9,000 feet, or 3,000 feet would be more like 1,000m. (00:03:20)

Trivia: The character June Harris assumes Dr. Smith's identity. The series' producers gave June the last name of Harris to honor Jonathan Harris, the actor who portrayed Dr. Smith on the original TV show. Her first name is a tribute to June Lockhart, who played Maureen Robinson.

Infestation - S1-E3

Question: If the universe is around 13 billion years old, can the distances between galaxies be counted as a different units? Galactic distance is huge; could the distances be in trillion light years apart? I believe the age of the universe is different than galactic distances?

Answer: Yes to all questions. The best theoretical estimate is that the universe is about 7 trillion light years across. That is about 250 times larger than the currently observable universe. So, yes, using trillions of light years as a unit of measure is appropriate. And, yes, the age of the universe is a measure of time, and the space between galaxies is a measure of distance.
