Continuity mistake: Near the end of the film, Jack helps Julia into the stasis module, and the bombs are visible by her feet. If she was switched to another module, so that the bombs were still inside but she remained on Earth, she would have woken up in the process.

Suggested correction: There's no evidence that she would have woken up. We don't have enough information about the statis process or its effects on the person once the pod is open to determine if she would have woken up during this time.
Suggested correction: My question is, where is this new stasis module from? It's a 60 year old special equipment on a spaceship to Titan. For that reason it is unlikely that these stasis modules are numerous on earth and in the hand of the scavengers. All other populated pods are destroyed by the drones. May be there are two more empty stasis modules for Jack and Vika on the jettisoned space vehicle? OK, that could be.
Jack Harper: 60 years ago, Earth was attacked. We won the war, but they destroyed half the planet. Everyone's been evacuated. Nothing human remains. We're here for drone repair. We're the "mop-up crew."
Trivia: At the start when the UNIVERSAL writing comes around the Earth, the TET can be seen in orbit.
Question: Since the Moon is not gone, just broken into pieces, wouldn't this still provide the same mass, and hence the same gravitational attraction? Hard to see how the tidal effect would destroy the Earth without physically removing the Moon's mass. Makes a nice visual, but seems to fall flat on the science.
