Factual error: According to the NASA space shuttle launch countdown procedure, the close-out crew retreats to fallback area in the "T-3 hours and counting" phase. The members of the crew are the last persons who leave the launch pad at least 20 minutes before liftoff. However, during the close-up take of the main engines, when the ground control says "All systems go for APU start", we can see two members of the ground personnel in orange suits near the engines.

Continuity mistake: When Michelle is driving her car, the back shots show some label to the left of a driving wheel that is missing in the front shots. (00:15:10)
Continuity mistake: When Michelle's car lays upside down, one can see that it has headlights with two lamps on each side, but in the previous shots her car has only one lamp on each side. (00:15:45)
Continuity mistake: When Mulder is at Ground Control and the woman is telling the space ship that they're going into fly-by-wire mode, the Mulder's visitor pass changes from beneath his jacket to above his jacket between shots. (00:20:00)
Continuity mistake: When Colonel Belt is going to bed after the press conference, the bottle on his side table moves between shots. (00:25:50)
Continuity mistake: During Colonel Belt's funeral, there are saluting soldiers standing behind Michelle in some shots, while in others they are not there. (00:43:45)
Continuity mistake: When Deputy Wright is electrocuted, depending on the shot he holds the flashlight either in his left or right hand. (00:02:40)
Other mistake: The fourth photo could not have been taken by Mulder, because he is shooting craft's pictures from elevation, while this photo is taken from the ground level. (00:08:45)
Continuity mistake: After Mulder has been released from the containment cell, and he and Scully go back to his room, the items on the table change position in between shots. (00:15:00)
Continuity mistake: When Max is trying to escape through Mulder's window, in the first shot, the bottom window is halfway down, but in the next shot, it's fully up. (00:15:35)
Continuity mistake: When Mulder and Scully are going to the caravan for the first time, you can see a person walking in the background, but when the shot changes they are no longer there. (00:17:05)
Continuity mistake: Just before the attack of the alien creature the soldiers change their positions from shot to shot. Moreover, additional soldiers suddenly appear nearby the commanding group. (00:22:10)
Continuity mistake: At The End of Max's seizure Mulder holds him under his chin, but in the next shot he holds his hands. (00:26:30)
Continuity mistake: When Mulder helps Max lie down he notices the scar behind his right ear but when he tells Scully about it later he says that the scar is behind his left ear. (00:29:45 - 00:31:00)
Continuity mistake: When Max bleeds out his ear, the blood stain on the pillow changes when Mulder and Scully see it. (00:32:10)
Visible crew/equipment: Mulder talks to the man from NICAP on the other side of the fence. When the shot is looking at the man, film lights are visible reflected in his glasses. Since he is looking at Mulder, there should be lights on Mulder's side, but there are none.
Continuity mistake: When Scully is reading report from Simmons' death, we can see that is has occured on the 7th of November, 1993; which means that whole episode takes place at the very beginning of November, but at the same time Scully and Mulder should be at Alaska (see episode "Ice").

Other mistake: Eve 6 says that ordinary human beings have 46 chromosomes, while the Adams and the Eves have 56 chromosomes. This makes 10 additional chromosomes. However, Eve 6 also mentions that they have additional chromosomes number 4, 5, 12, 16, and 22 - only 5 additional chromosomes. (00:22:40)
Suggested correction: There is no mistake. Normal humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes: two 1s, two 2s, two 22s, and either XX for females or XY for males. 46 chromosomes in total. The Eves have 5 extra pairs of chromosomes, or 10 extra individual chromosomes. So what Eve 6 said tallies up. In reality, this many extra chromosomes would surely be lethal.
