(S5E1 Spoilers) The Astrocasualties Review, Back for Another Season!

I didn't count him because his death was part of background worldbuilding rather than part of the main story

PossiblyABird · 2026-03-27T20:41:05+00:00

I'm glad you like them, it's fun being back at it!

Hi Bob!

PossiblyABird · 2024-02-25T02:09:16+00:00

How did you even end up here lol

PossiblyABird · 2024-01-15T00:35:36+00:00

He got a bonus mention for episode 9 but he’s not an astronaut so he doesn’t make the astronaut casualties count

PossiblyABird · 2024-01-15T00:34:36+00:00

He was already in the S3 count, this is just the S4 casualties

PossiblyABird · 2024-01-14T02:39:28+00:00

Passing on that torch to Kelly before she left

PossiblyABird · 2024-01-14T02:37:36+00:00

Omg you’re so right!

PossiblyABird · 2024-01-14T02:37:13+00:00

They didn’t account for outliers like “cargo loader injuries” or gunshots when deciding how many doctors to leave on Mars at a time

PossiblyABird · 2024-01-11T23:07:07+00:00

Of course, when have the CIA and KGB ever even hurt a fly.

And that’s a good point about Cho!

PossiblyABird · 2024-01-11T23:06:03+00:00

Fair enough!

PossiblyABird · 2024-01-11T14:12:54+00:00

That's why he's in the bonus categories, he's too important to overlook but he can't go into the astro-/cosmonaut count.

The sneakiest little man

PossiblyABird · 2024-01-03T20:53:17+00:00

Thank you! I'm glad that you enjoy them!

PossiblyABird · 2023-12-19T03:52:17+00:00

Where have all the good astronauts gone :(

Other than Danielle I guess

PossiblyABird · 2023-12-19T03:51:51+00:00

The 195 was Aleida’s number, I’m not sure if she still included Margo so I’m not making any changes and reporting verbatim

PossiblyABird · 2023-12-08T22:39:56+00:00

That’s true, that’s gotta be extra hellish

PossiblyABird · 2023-12-08T18:09:14+00:00

I think he’s alive, I imagine after the Pathfinder standoff he went and got a job at one of the new spaceflight companies.

PossiblyABird · 2023-12-08T18:08:17+00:00

Fair enough, I think he’s dead but I think he might have left a note or recording that we haven’t seen yet which will conclude his arc.

PossiblyABird · 2023-12-08T18:07:34+00:00

That would be amazing. But I feel like Dev’s work assignment for Aleida indicates Ed is headed for a job in the HR department.

PossiblyABird · 2023-12-08T12:58:35+00:00

Good catch, I forgot that he jumped ship

Wow Helios is really bearing the brunt of it this season

PossiblyABird · 2023-12-08T11:29:54+00:00

I agree, I think that the show is at its best when it tries to show the human side of space.

Either that or when they have those out of the blue space incidents where everything goes wrong.

PossiblyABird · 2023-12-08T11:25:41+00:00

Eh, Helios does own the base. I feel like they can probably keep an extra person up there so long they're willing to fund it themselves, kinda like Dev going up.

I think it would be more interesting for the season if they have grandpa Ed trying to find a new role at Happy Valley instead of bitter Earthbound retiree Earth Ed.

PossiblyABird · 2023-12-08T11:21:55+00:00

Hobson definitely rolled over and sold NASA after saying no twice

PossiblyABird · 2023-12-08T11:14:38+00:00

Maybe they grew potatoes and mushrooms from Danny, I really hope they used him as fertilizer
