We Weren't Supposed to Be Awake - S1-E4

Other mistake: Alicia puts the vials with the protein in a centrifuge, supposedly in order to mix them. When she's done, she takes a vial and shakes it to make sure it's mixed evenly. However, a centrifuge separates solutions into their ingredients, not mixes them. (00:34:00)

We Weren't Supposed to Be Awake - S1-E4

Other mistake: Alicia puts a square tray with vials into a device that looks like a small cabin. Then we see a supposedly top shot of the device, which is a centrifuge. But in the centrifuge, the vials are held in a circle, not in a square. (00:34:00)

We Weren't Supposed to Be Awake - S1-E4

Factual error: Angus rushes to the bridge to tell the officers that the crystal that contaminated the glove was made from an unknown element, that's not on the periodic table. This means the element is heavier than the heaviest known element, Oganesson. In other words, it's a superheavy element. The problem is superheavy elements have an extremely short half-life time, usually measured by the milliseconds. Anything made from this element will dissipate before or shortly after it hits the ship. (00:40:00)
