Fimmel & Pals appear to be adherents to a form of Sci-Fi Zoroastrianism. Which explains the Sun on their tunics and why they refer to the Sun as “Sol”. Mithras would hold banquets dedicated to Sol.

Kepler is like 630 lightyears out, getting there in 12 years, even a relativistic 12 years, means they got some serious engine tech. Boldly go, people!

The intro of the show appears to have some sort of wormhole technology in it, showing the ship emerging from it before crashing on the planet.

Yeah, even in Interstellar, there were thousands of embryos and Anne Hathaway and a sentient Tetris piece were going to raise them alone.

12 people just isn’t enough genetic diversity to restart humanity. You would need hundreds or thousands, not dozens.

Watched the newest episodes and things just got real interesting. I have no idea what could even begin to happen next.

Only 3 episodes left this season.

Edit: Ragnar is such a smug bastard. On Vikings and now on this. I mean, goddamn.

If I had to guess, it's some sort of subliminal conditioning tied to the stasis pods. Being connected to them does something to your brain that causes you to hear these voices speaking in phrases that deal with their particular religion and it's vague prophecies. Probably programmed by the high clerics or whomever is in charge to reinforce their faith. And Mother and Father seeing things and hearing things could mean that their original Mithraic programming is somehow working it's way back to the surface. But Mother is experiencing it quicker than Father was because she kept interacting with the pod. Reminds me of the Demolition Man cryoprison conditioning where Simon Phoenix became a master hacker while he was in stasis and John Spartan knew how to knit things.

Of course, that's just me throwing darts blindly at a board. I'm probably terribly wrong and it's something impossibly scifi.

What if "Don't go to the Tropical Zone!" was more along the lines of "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!" from the Wizard of Oz?

What if the tropical zone is where all the existing proto-human civilization is, and Space Snek/Sol doesn't want anybody interacting with them for whatever reason?

Being able to fly, disintegrate people with her screams, all whilst T-posing, means Mother owns just slightly more than Father.
