Corrected entry: During the original mission to investigate the Tet, why did the crew need to be in cryosleep? This wasn't a long range mission but a flight into orbital distance from Earth; the trip would have only taken hours, which certainly wouldn't require crew to be put in stasis. If anything, all hands should have been on deck for such a critical mission.

Corrected entry: How did Beech know to quote the exact same (and only) line that Jack read from the book he found in the library? He had no way of knowing whether Jack had read the book, let alone the exact stanza from a specific poem.
Correction: Because Beech watches Jack closely through binoculars, we can assume that he knows which book Jack took, and has probably had plenty of time to read it himself. That quote is Thomas Macaulay's most famous, so it's not a stretch he would go for that quote from Macaulay's book.

Correction: Because at the time of the original mission to investigate the Tet it was near Jupiter, not near Earth as it is for most of the "present" action of the movie.
If they're near Jupiter, how can they communicate in real time with Sally? Shouldn't there be at least 20 minutes of delay? Even with the incredible technology seen in the movie, it seems that light speed is still a limit.
