Trivia: There is a little reference to the novel One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Ben, the robot, upon meeting Jimmy says something like "Solitude is great, but 100 years of it..."
Trivia: RLS in the name RLS Legacy in which the crew set off, stands for Robert Louis Stevenson, author of Treasure Island.
Continuity mistake: Sometimes the "warped" patterns of glass in Amelia's cabin change, and after being replaced from the Surpernova (in which we see glass being shattered and that is the only glass in the ship that we see) every pane is warped.

Mr. Arrow: A ludicrous parcel of driveling galoots, Ma'am.
