Other mistake: In the docking scene, CASE analyzes the Endurance's spin rate to be 68 revolutions per minute. When the Endurance is shown onscreen, it is not spinning that fast - it is spinning at maybe 20 RPM.

Visible crew/equipment: Murph sneaks into Cooper's truck to get to NASA. Once Cooper closes the vehicle door after placing some blankets into it, a boom mic can be seen in the left wing mirror. (00:22:05)
Cooper: We used to look up at the sky and wonder at our place in the stars, now we just look down and worry about our place in the dirt.
Question: Why type of propulsion system does the Endurance use? It took 2 years for them to reach Saturn from Earth. Once they're in the other galaxy, the ship appears to travel between planets in mere hours/days. Also, it appears that the smaller shuttle craft was launched from Earth on a Saturn V type rocket, but later when leaving the surface of other planets, they have no such system.





Answer: I am not exactly sure what kind of propulsion system is used, however; you must consider that although in our galaxy even the closest planets to Earth take years to travel to, in this alternate universe, the planets may be arranged in a closer formation.
