In our current time we don’t have the technology to do interstellar space travel yet. It is because we can’t make ships that runs in the speed of light yet. Even in our own Solar System, the space travel is too slow. It will take 6 months to two years to go to Mars. Jupiter’s moon, Callisto takes 15 years or even more of travel. Going to an extra solar planet will take centuries or even millennium because they are that far.

The Ark official trailer

Ark One is a space colony on the lookout for a suitable Earth-like planet to settle on.

Because it takes place in the future, an excessive number of people may have made the Earth uninhabitable. The likelihood that the earth has vanished is also a possibility. Because the journey will take several light years, the majority of the passengers are in suspended animation. The spaceship has a crew that is awake and in charge of navigating the ship and flying the spacecraft. All the colony’s supplies are sufficient to keep the operational crew alive, but certain accidents will occur since damage to the ship awakens up the passengers who have been cryogenically sleeping.

They were quite fortunate in that some of the passengers who did awaken were incredibly gifted scientists and engineers. As a result, even if supplies are running low, they are still able to find solutions for mending the ship’s damage and keeping everyone alive. They turn into the best versions of themselves after going through a horrible occurrence that resulted in widespread devastation and the loss of many lives so that they can continue on their road and survive. The Ark is coming to Syfy and Hulu the first of February.

This show will need a lot of luck if they want a Season 2. An anime in Netflix that never reached top 10 have higher chances to get renewed than them.

Who here saw that science fiction film with Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence? The title of the movie, if I'm not mistaken, is The passengers. With only two fully aware passengers in the first film, this is essentially a replica of that with more crew members.

They should have selected someone in their 30s for the roles because the performers they hired look like high school students. After the first season, SyFy has decided to cancel the show without warning. The more I think about it, the less likely it is that this show will return for a second season. It has the aesthetic quality of a low-end version of Expanse.

Somebody obviously watched the CW show The 100 and was motivated to write their own take on the plot. An integral part of this attempt will be creating interesting protagonists and antagonists. Though I worry SyFy may cancel the show before the end of the first season, I will investigate this without delay. SyFy's record isn't great when it comes to this specific metric.

I don't know if the acting or the special effects were more disappointing. There are a lot of ways to disagree about this topic, but that won't be how the quality of the presentation is judged.

This show has made me want to know more. On the other hand, I can no longer count on SyFy. They've taken advantage of me so many times that I've stopped keeping track. When I finally get to the show, I find out that it has been canceled. They canceled a show that could have like Y: The Last Man. That show have potential to be big if given a chance but they canceled it.

It looks like a pre-discovery CW show.

People do not waste your time and watch Lost in Space in Netflix instead.
