Stupidity: The ship crashes at the end after the reverse polarity from the shuttle causes an explosion. This could have been avoided by a) doing a spacewalk with a multimeter and checking the connections or b) not connecting the shuttle to the mothership. And it is hard to believe that there were no circuit breakers or fuses that would blow and protect the ship.
