Factual error: When the Jupiter 2 blasts off, it does so in the most fuel inefficient way possible - flat surface first. The air resistance would be fifty times less if they'd angled it side on. Plus, when the aerodynamic cover blasts away, the Jupiter 2 itself is revealed - and it is more aerodynamic than the cover. Rocket science must have taken a few steps backward lately... .
Lost in Space (1998)
1 factual error
Directed by: Stephen Hopkins
Starring: Gary Oldman, William Hurt, Heather Graham, Mimi Rogers, Lacey Chabert, Matt LeBlanc
Revealing mistake: During the attack of the Global Sedition on the space station at the beginning of the film, several objects can be seen with dark grey boxes around them - CGI artifacts. One clear time is when Ranger 1 is saying "Damn, can't shake him". (00:02:35)
Trivia: Gary Oldman is listed twice in the ending credits, once as "Dr. Smith" and again as "Spider Smith."
Question: On the DVD, what happens if you answer all the questions right on "Your Mission" in the Features menu?
