Wraith, please share your thoughts on the EVA suits, please and thank you

^Aside from the fact that the helmets are so small that they wouldn't even be able to turn their head, the Titan EVA suits look just too small to contain everything that they would need. Especially in an environment so cold that it could maintain fluids at cryogenic temperatures. So that means very little insulation and active power for heating, with no apparent energy storage mass.

The odd thing is that the EVA suits that they have already shown in use this season (like the opening ep when Alex was driving the motorcycle around or when Kelly was looking for life in the crater) would be perfectly fine. Those are reasonable size and obviously have heritage in this universe. It would honestly make more sense if these little baby baby suits were in use for short EVAs on Mars and the normal size ones were in use for the Titan mission.

I liked this episode. Shows if you choose the path of civil disobedience you risk your own freedom and lives, but maybe the bigger cause is worth it.

Reminds me of some of the deep space 9 plot arcs

My science nitpick of the week...how did the recon shuttle get to the asteroid days faster than it's mothership? You can't just detach and speed up like you're on the highway.

I don't know if any of these explanations are plausible

In space, no one can hear Avery scream.

And during those days -- Mars mission control was able to detect the mother ship but not the shuttle? And why would the Mars' colonists use a timed explosive rather than a remote detonation in the first place? What if there was some kind of launch lock failure on their return shuttle or something?
