It's very tricky to get a happy ending out of that situation without making it seem cheesy or deus ex machina. But with the cut to a photo, which is a callback to a previous central plot point, this episode does it perfectly. Really impressive.

As the old saying goes "Any landing you can walk away from, is a good one!". On a more serious side note, when the real life shuttle Columbia disintegrated upon re-entry in 2003, Cartoon Network took this episode off the air a few days after the disaster.

I haven't seen this Episode since before the Columbia disaster. I was a student at TTU and went outside and saw the Columbia break up to the East. I didn't know the only Texas Tech astronaut was the flight commandeer. The ME lab I went back into had a picture of him from his first space mission and I was none the wiser.
4:10 there's honestly something so badass about this music kicking in here. As if its revelling in the glory of what is current tech for us, but old tech for them. I can't quite describe why that hypes me up so much.

I love how perfect the filmmaking is on this show. Any other show or movie would've just showed them crashing, but the showrunners decided to instead focus on emotional impact through a series of photos that imply a much greater world. Cowboy Bebop was so good at the implication of a grander universe just beyond the edges of our screens.

I love the idea of the retrofitted space shuttle and how because it was basically a falling brick with wings that barely counted as a glider, they had to add pitch thrusters to the front of it to make it take off, because the shuttle was never meant to take off on its own as well as what i assume to be a fuel tank in the hangar since it doesnt have the main lifting SRBs or orange tank, tho i assume it was filled with a new type of fuel thatthe other ships use, for it to be able to get sub orbital off of that relatively small tank.

Uhmmm. *gets the calculator out* Lesse, that looks like a Centaur upper stage used in conjunction with the Atlas V boosters to kick the HUGE spy satellites into LEO... Which makes them roughly about 1/2 the size of the normal external tankerage... Runway takeoff gobbles fuel, even with the RATO kickers on the nose... Shuttles are shit for SSTO, even with a fluorine hydrogen superfuel. The old JP1 to get off the ground, then hydrogen to orbit rule reigns supreme here. Hydro/Ox burn rates... I'd say they had about a minute and a half to 1:45 burn time. Just right for a high arc trajectory for a Barn Swallow catch then bring home. Poor COLUMBIA probably got kinked pretty hard using RATO boost like that, knocking tiles off the belly.
