In Greco-Roman mythology, Aeneas (/ɪˈniːəs/;[1] Greek: Αἰνείας, Aineías, possibly derived from Greek αἰνή meaning "praised") was a Trojan hero, the son of the prince Anchises and the goddess Aphrodite (Venus). His father was a first cousin of King Priam of Troy (both being grandsons of Ilus, founder of Troy), making Aeneas a second cousin to Priam's children (such as Hector and Paris). He is a character in Greek mythology and is mentioned in Homer's Iliad. Aeneas receives full treatment in Roman mythology, most extensively in Virgil's Aeneid, where he is an ancestor of Romulus and Remus. He became the first true hero of Rome. Snorri Sturluson identifies him with the Norse Æsir Vidarr[2].

Name[edit]
Aeneas is the Latin spelling of Greek Αἰνείας (Aineías). In the Homeric Hymn to Aphrodite, Aeneas is first introduced with Aphrodite naming him Αἰνείας (Aineías) for the αὶνóν ἄχος ("terrible grief") he caused her, where Aineías derives from the adjective αὶνóν (ainon, meaning "terrible").[3] It is a popular etymology for the name, apparently exploited by Homer in the Iliad.[4] Later in the Medieval period there were writers who held that, because the Aeneid was written by a philosopher it is meant to be read philosophically.[5] As such, in the "natural order", the meaning of Aeneas' name combines Greek ennos ("dweller") and demas ("body"), which becomes ennaios, meaning "in-dweller" (i.e. as a god inhabiting a mortal body).[6] However, there is no certainty regarding the origin of his name.
Epithets[edit]
In imitation of the Iliad, Virgil borrows epithets of Homer, including; Anchisiades, magnanimum, magnus, heros, and bonus. Though he borrows many, Virgil gives Aeneas two epithets of his own in the Aeneid: pater and pius. The epithets applied by Virgil are an example of an attitude different from that of Homer, for whilst Odysseus is poikilios ("wily"), Aeneas is described as pius ("pious"), which conveys a strong moral tone. The purpose of these epithets seem to enforce the notion of Aeneas' divine hand as father and founder of the Roman race, and their use seem circumstantial: when Aeneas is praying he refers to himself as pius, and is referred to as such by the author only when the character is acting on behalf of the gods to fulfill his divine mission. Likewise, Aeneas is called pater when acting in the interest of his men.[7]
Greek myth and epos[edit]
Homeric Hymn to Aphrodite[edit]
Painting Venus and Anchises by William Blake Richmond (1889 or 90)
The story of the birth of Aeneas is told in the "Hymn to Aphrodite", one of the major Homeric Hymns. Aphrodite has caused the other god Zeus, to fall in love with mortal women. In retaliation, Zeus puts desire in her heart for Anchises, who is tending his cattle among the hills near Mount Ida. When Aphrodite sees him she is smitten. She adorns herself as if for a wedding among the gods and appears before him. He is overcome by her beauty, believing that she is a goddess, but Aphrodite identifies herself as a Phrygian princess. After they make love, Aphrodite reveals her true identity to him and Anchises fears what might happen to him as a result of their liaison. Aphrodite assures him that he will be protected, and tells him that she will bear him a son to be called Aeneas. However, she warns him that he must never tell anyone that he has lain with a goddess. When Aeneas is born, Aphrodite takes him to the nymphs of Mount Ida. She directs them to raise the child to age five, then take him to Anchises.[8] According to other sources, Anchises later brags about his encounter with Aphrodite, and as a result is struck in the foot with a thunderbolt by Zeus. Thereafter he is lame in that foot, so that Aeneas has to carry him from the flames of Troy.[9]
Homer's Iliad[edit]
Aeneas carrying Anchises, black-figured oinochoe, ca. 520–510 BC, Louvre (F 118)
Aeneas is a minor character in the Iliad, where he is twice saved from death by the gods as if for an as-yet-unknown destiny, but is an honorable warrior in his own right. Having held back from the fighting, aggrieved with Priam because in spite of his brave deeds he was not given his due share of honour, he leads an attack against Idomeneus to recover the body of his brother-in-law Alcathous at the urging of Deiphobus.[10] He is the leader of the Trojans' Dardanian allies, as well as a second cousin and principal lieutenant of Hector, son of the Trojan king Priam. Aeneas's mother Aphrodite frequently comes to his aid on the battlefield, and he is a favorite of Apollo. Aphrodite and Apollo rescue Aeneas from combat with Diomedes of Argos, who nearly kills him, and carry him away to Pergamos for healing. Even Poseidon, who normally favors the Greeks, comes to Aeneas's rescue after he falls under the assault of Achilles, noting that Aeneas, though from a junior branch of the royal family, is destined to become king of the Trojan people. Bruce Louden presents Aeneas as a "type" in the tradition of Utnapishtim, Baucis and Philemon, and Lot; the just man spared the general destruction.[11] Apollodorus explains that "...the Greeks let him alone on account of his piety".[12]
Other sources[edit]
The Roman mythographer Gaius Julius Hyginus (c. 64 BCE – CE 17) in his Fabulae[13] credits Aeneas with killing 28 enemies in the Trojan War. Aeneas also appears in the Trojan narratives attributed to Dares Phrygius and Dictys of Crete
Roman myth and literature[edit]
Aeneas and Anchises
The history of Aeneas was continued by Roman authors. One influential source was the account of Rome's founding in Cato the Elder's Origines.[14] The Aeneas legend was well known in Virgil's day and appeared in various historical works, including the Roman Antiquities of the Greek historian Dionysius of Halicarnassus (relying on Marcus Terentius Varro), Ab Urbe Condita by Livy (probably dependent on Quintus Fabius Pictor, fl. 200 BCE), and Gnaeus Pompeius Trogus (now extant only in an epitome by Justin).
Virgil's Aeneid[edit]
Venus as Huntress Appears to Aeneas, by Pietro da Cortona
The Aeneid explains that Aeneas is one of the few Trojans who were not killed or enslaved when Troy fell. Aeneas, after being commanded by the gods to flee, gathered a group, collectively known as the Aeneads, who then traveled to Italy and became progenitors of Romans. The Aeneads included Aeneas's trumpeter Misenus, his father Anchises, his friends Achates, Sergestus, and Acmon, the healer Iapyx, the helmsman Palinurus, and his son Ascanius (also known as Iulus, Julus, or Ascanius Julius). He carried with him the Lares and Penates, the statues of the household gods of Troy, and transplanted them to Italy.
Several attempts to find a new home failed; one such stop was on Sicily, where in Drepanum, on the island's western coast, his father, Anchises, died peacefully.
Aeneas tells Dido about the fall of Troy, by Pierre-Narcisse Guérin
After a brief but fierce storm sent up against the group at Juno's request, Aeneas and his fleet made landfall at Carthage after six years of wanderings. Aeneas had a year-long affair with the Carthaginian queen Dido (also known as Elissa), who proposed that the Trojans settle in her land and that she and Aeneas reign jointly over their peoples. A marriage of sorts was arranged between Dido and Aeneas at the instigation of Juno, who was told that her favorite city would eventually be defeated by the Trojans' descendants. Aeneas's mother Venus (the Roman adaptation of Aphrodite) realized that her son and his company needed a temporary respite to reinforce themselves for the journey to come. However, the messenger god Mercury was sent by Jupiter and Venus to remind Aeneas of his journey and his purpose, compelling him to leave secretly. When Dido learned of this, she uttered a curse that would forever pit Carthage against Rome, an enmity that would culminate in the Punic Wars. She then committed suicide by stabbing herself with the same sword she gave Aeneas when they first met.
After the sojourn in Carthage, the Trojans returned to Sicily where Aeneas organized funeral games to honor his father, who had died a year before. The company traveled on and landed on the western coast of Italy. Aeneas descended into the underworld where he met Dido (who turned away from him to return to her husband) and his father, who showed him the future of his descendants and thus the history of Rome.
Aeneas defeats Turnus, by Luca Giordano, 1634–1705. The genius of Aeneas is shown ascendant, looking into the light of the future, while that of Turnus is setting, shrouded in darkness
Latinus, king of the Latins, welcomed Aeneas's army of exiled Trojans and let them reorganize their lives in Latium. His daughter Lavinia had been promised to Turnus, king of the Rutuli, but Latinus received a prophecy that Lavinia would be betrothed to one from another land — namely, Aeneas. Latinus heeded the prophecy, and Turnus consequently declared war on Aeneas at the urging of Juno, who was aligned with King Mezentius of the Etruscans and Queen Amata of the Latins. Aeneas's forces prevailed. Turnus was killed, and Virgil's account ends abruptly.
Other sources[edit]
The rest of Aeneas's biography is gleaned from other ancient sources, including Livy and Ovid's Metamorphoses. According to Livy, Aeneas was victorious but Latinus died in the war. Aeneas founded the city of Lavinium, named after his wife. He later welcomed Dido's sister, Anna Perenna, who then committed suicide after learning of Lavinia's jealousy. After Aeneas's death, Venus asked Jupiter to make her son immortal. Jupiter agreed. The river god Numicus cleansed Aeneas of all his mortal parts and Venus anointed him with ambrosia and nectar, making him a god. Aeneas was recognized as the god Jupiter Indiges.[15]
Medieval accounts[edit]
Snorri Sturlason in the Prologue of The Edda, tells of the world as parted in three continents: Africa, Asia and the third part called Europe or Enea [16] [17]. Snorri also tells of a Trojan named Munon or Menon, who marries the daughter of the High King (Yfirkonungr) Priam called Troan and travels to distant lands, marries the Sybil and got a son, Tror, who, as Snorri tells, is identical to Thor. This tale resemble some episodes of the Aeneid [18]. Continuations of Trojan matter in the Middle Ages had their effects on the character of Aeneas as well. The 12th-century French Roman d'Enéas addresses Aeneas's sexuality. Though Virgil appears to deflect all homoeroticism onto Nisus and Euryalus, making his Aeneas a purely heterosexual character, in the Middle Ages there was at least a suspicion of homoeroticism in Aeneas. The Roman d'Enéas addresses that charge, when Queen Amata opposes Aeneas's marrying Lavinia, claiming that Aeneas loved boys.[19]
Medieval interpretations of Aeneas were greatly influenced by both Virgil and other Latin sources. Specifically, the accounts by Dares and Dictys, which were reworked by 13th-century Italian writer Guido delle Colonne (in Historia destructionis Troiae), colored many later readings. From Guido, for instance, the Pearl Poet and other English writers get the suggestion[20] that Aeneas's safe departure from Troy with his possessions and family was a reward for treason, for which he was chastised by Hecuba.[21] In Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (late 14th century) the Pearl Poet, like many other English writers, employed Aeneas to establish a genealogy for the foundation of Britain,[20] and explains that Aeneas was "impeached for his perfidy, proven most true" (line 4).[22]
Family and legendary descendants[edit]
Aeneas and the god Tiber, by Bartolomeo Pinelli
Aeneas had an extensive family tree. His wet-nurse was Caieta,[23] and he is the father of Ascanius with Creusa, and of Silvius with Lavinia. Ascanius, also known as Iulus (or Julius),[24] founded Alba Longa and was the first in a long series of kings. According to the mythology outlined by Virgil in the Aeneid, Romulus and Remus were both descendants of Aeneas through their mother Rhea Silvia, making Aeneas the progenitor of the Roman people.[25] Some early sources call him their father or grandfather,[26] but considering the commonly accepted dates of the fall of Troy (1184 BC) and the founding of Rome (753 BC), this seems unlikely. The Julian family of Rome, most notably Julius Cæsar and Augustus, traced their lineage to Ascanius and Aeneas,[27] thus to the goddess Venus. Through the Julians, the Palemonids make this claim. The legendary kings of Britain – including King Arthur – trace their family through a grandson of Aeneas, Brutus.[28]
Character and physical appearance[edit]
Dido and Aeneas, from a Roman fresco, Pompeian Third Style (10 BC - 45 AD), Pompeii, Italy
Aeneas's consistent epithet in Virgil and other Latin authors is pius, a term that connotes reverence toward the gods and familial dutifulness.
In the Aeneid, Aeneas is described as strong and handsome, but neither his hair colour nor complexion are described.[29] In late antiquity however sources add further physical descriptions. The De excidio Troiae of Dares Phrygius describes Aeneas as ‘‘auburn-haired, stocky, eloquent, courteous, prudent, pious, and charming.’’[30] There is also a brief physical description found in John Malalas' Chronographia: ‘‘Aeneas: short, fat, with a good chest, powerful, with a ruddy complexion, a broad face, a good nose, fair skin, bald on the forehead, a good beard, grey eyes.’’[31]
Modern portrayals[edit]
Literature[edit]
Aeneas and Dido are the main characters of a 17th-century broadside ballad called "The Wandering Prince of Troy." The ballad ultimately alters Aeneas's fate from traveling on years after Dido's death to joining her as a spirit soon after her suicide.[32]
In modern literature, Aeneas is the speaker in two poems by Allen Tate, "Aeneas at Washington" and "Aeneas at New York." He is a main character in Ursula K. Le Guin's Lavinia, a re-telling of the last six books of the Aeneid told from the point of view of Lavinia, daughter of King Latinus of Latium.
Aeneas appears in David Gemmell's Troy series as a main heroic character who goes by the name Helikaon.
In Rick Riordan's book series, The Heroes of Olympus, Aeneas is regarded as the first Roman demigod, son of Venus rather than Aphrodite.
Opera, film and other media[edit]
Aeneas is a title character in Henry Purcell's opera Dido and Aeneas (c. 1688), and one of the principal roles in Hector Berlioz' opera Les Troyens (c. 1857). Canadian composer James Rolfe composed his opera Aeneas and Dido (2007; to a libretto by André Alexis) as a companion piece to Purcell's opera.
Despite its many dramatic elements, Aeneas's story has generated little interest from the film industry. Portrayed by Steve Reeves, he was the main character in the 1961 sword and sandal film Guerra di Troia (The Trojan War). Reeves reprised the role the following year in the film The Avenger, about Aeneas's arrival in Latium and his conflicts with local tribes as he tries to settle his fellow Trojan refugees there.
The most recent cinematic portrayal of Aeneas was in the film Troy, in which he appears as a youth charged by Paris to protect the Trojan refugees, and to continue the ideals of the city and its people. Paris gives Aeneas Priam's sword, in order to give legitimacy and continuity to the royal line of Troy – and lay the foundations of Roman culture. In this film, he is not a member of the royal family and does not appear to fight in the war.
In the role-playing game Vampire: The Requiem by White Wolf Game Studios, Aeneas figures as one of the mythical founders of the Ventrue Clan.
in the action game Warriors: Legends of Troy, Aeneas is a playable character. The game ends with him and the Aeneans fleeing Troy's destruction and, spurned by the words of a prophetess thought crazed, goes to a new country (Italy) where he will start an empire greater than Greece and Troy combined that shall rule the world for 1000 years, never to be outdone in the tale of men (The Roman Empire).
In the 2018 TV miniseries Troy: Fall of a City, Aeneas is portrayed by Alfred Enoch.[33]
Depictions in art[edit]
Scenes depicting Aeneas, especially from the Aeneid, have been the focus of study for centuries. They have been the frequent subject of art and literature since their debut in the 1st century.
Villa Valmarana[edit]
The artist Giovanni Battista Tiepolo was commissioned by Gaetano Valmarana in 1757 to fresco several rooms in the Villa Valmarana, the family villa situated outside Vicenza. Tiepolo decorated the palazzina with scenes from epics such as Homer's Iliad and Virgil's Aeneid.[34]

Premise[edit]
When a celestial object, dubbed "The Christmas Star" by the media, crashes into Earth and threatens humanity's survival in 2046, mankind launches the Resolute, an interstellar spacecraft carrying selected families to colonize a new world. The Robinson family is selected for the 24th mission of the Resolute. Before they reach their destination, an alien robot breaches the Resolute's hull. Some of the families are forced to evacuate the mothership in their short range Jupiter spacecraft. The Robinsons and other colonists crash land on a habitable nearby planet where they battle the strange new environment and their own personal demons as they attempt to find a way back to the Resolute.[1]

Main[edit]
Molly Parker as Maureen Robinson, a fearless and brilliant aerospace engineer taking her family on the mission to colonize Alpha Centauri for a new life on a better world. She is a mission commander. She is married to John Robinson and is the mother of three children.[2]
Toby Stephens as John Robinson, a former U.S. Navy SEAL, and husband to Maureen. He is the biological father of Maureen's two younger children and step-father to her eldest child.[better reference needed]
Maxwell Jenkins as Will Robinson, the 11-year-old son and youngest child of Maureen and John Robinson.[3]
Taylor Russell as Judy Robinson, the 18-year-old eldest child of Maureen Robinson and step-daughter of John Robinson. She is a mission doctor, having received accelerated medical training.[4] She is Maureen's child from her first marriage before John.
Mina Sundwall as Penny Robinson, the second-oldest Robinson child.[5]
Ignacio Serricchio as Don West, a roughneck mechanical engineer who also smuggles luxury goods.[6]
Parker Posey as Dr. Smith, whose real name is June Harris. (The name is a tribute to June Lockhart, who played Maureen Robinson in the 1960s series, and Jonathan Harris, who played the original series' Dr. Smith[7]). June Harris is a criminal and a sociopath who uses other people’s identities to claim their belongings. In the series, June first steals her sister, Jessica's, identity and assumes her place on the colony ship. She later impersonates Dr. Zachary Smith, to take his seat on an evacuating Jupiter ship. After landing on the planet, she attempts to sabotage the Jupiters' chances of being rescued by the Resolute while manipulating and gaslighting the survivors to avoid prosecution for her crimes. The theft of Dr. Zachary Smith's identity is a reference to the corresponding Dr. Smith character of the original TV series, [8] This doctor is played by Bill Mumy, the actor who played Will Robinson in the original show.

"Impact" Neil Marshall Matt Sazama & Burk Sharpless April 13, 2018 (2018-04-13)
The Jupiter Mission 24 Colonial spacecraft Resolute, a large ferris wheel style ship, is carrying colonists, including the Robinson family, to Alpha Centauri. The Resolute is attacked and colonists escape in their “family home” Jupiter landing crafts but are hurled into a wormhole, with some crash landing on an Earth-like planet. The Robinsons' craft, Jupiter 2, crashes into a glacial bed. The family evacuates with some supplies and equipment, but the craft soon sinks to the bottom of a pool of water. Eldest Robinson child, Judy, who is the family member with medical skills, dives to the ship to retrieve a battery to power equipment during the sub-zero night. While swimming to the surface, just short of the surface she becomes encased in ice as the water refreezes. With five hours of oxygen left in Judy's suit, John and son, Will, set out to collect magnesium (identified by Will) to react with and melt the ice. Judy guides her sister, Penny, through a medical procedure to treat their injured mother, Maureen. Inside a cave on the way collect magnesium, Will falls down a chasm, landing uninjured at the edge of forest. John radios Will, saying he will return after saving Judy. Alone, Will finds a crashed alien ship and a dying robot that Will helps to self-repair. In return, it saves Will as a forest fire nearly engulfs them. The multi-limbed robot then transforms itself into a friendlier humanoid form. The family attempt to free Judy, but a sudden rainstorm hinders their progress. Will and the Robot arrive, and the Robot rescues Judy. In a flashback scene, a woman steals the identity of Dr. Zachary Smith and boards a Jupiter landing, along with Don West and Tam Roughneck.

Meanwhile, the alien robot melts a hole through the ice to begin the process of raising Jupiter 2. Penny notes a distant explosion, discerning it is another Jupiter craft. Maureen and John, along with Will and the robot, hike there. They get Will to ask the robot to take them where he found it as they wish to examine the robot's ship. John and Maureen enter the ship where a holographic map of the planet is activated, showing they are in an unidentified galaxy. Outside, the robot touches the ship's hull, creating a mental connection to Will who experiences a vision of the robot's killing rampage aboard the Resolute. The shocking link severs when the robot jerks its hand away, leaving Will uneasy about the robot, whose memory appears to be damaged. Will surmises its system may have rebooted. He decides to say nothing to his parents about the vision. Penny takes a Chariot (an all-terrain vehicle) from the ship to rescue her family from an approaching deadly storm. As they head back to Jupiter 2 Don sees them and attempts to signal for help. He discovers that Smith tricked him and has stolen the flare gun. The Robinsons find Smith, who claims to be alone. They safely return to Jupiter 2.

"Infestation" Tim Southam Zack Estrin April 13, 2018 (2018-04-13)
In a flashback, Smith is revealed to be June Harris, the older ex-con sister of Jess Harris, a successful businesswoman. Jess gives June her entire estate as she is leaving Earth on Resolute. June drugs Jess and removes her subcutaneous Jupiter ID chip and assumes her sister's identity. Aboard Resolute, June is approached by Jess' married lover, but realizing she is an impostor, he attempts to subdue her. During a struggle, he becomes trapped in an airlock and is blown out into space when June deliberately fails to override the system. June's actions are caught on a security camera, and she is arrested but escapes during the robot's attack. In the present, Maureen explains they are trillions of miles from Earth, but thinks there could be a way to return. At night, the ice layer over Jupiter 2 cracks, endangering the ship. They rush to complete repairs, but the engines are losing fuel. When Will and the robot discover large eel-like creatures in the conduits, the robot locks Will, along with Smith, in the storeroom for Will's protection, refusing to release them. John captures and kills one of the creatures and gives Maureen the carcass to study: the creatures are consuming the fuel. While locked in the storeroom, Smith suggests that the robot responds to Will's emotions rather than his commands. The glacier shifts, which forces the crew to make an emergency take-off after flushing the eels from the engines. They escape with just enough fuel to land near a forest region. Comms pick up radio communication from other Jupiter survivors and also from Resolute, who are searching for survivors. Later, it is revealed that the robot hacked the 3D printer to make a gun for Will to protect himself from the robot. Will orders the robot to not hurt anyone. He hides the gun, unaware Smith is watching.

"The Robinsons Were Here" Alice Troughton Katherine Collins April 13, 2018 (2018-04-13)
Will has the robot assist John in setting up a perimeter. Will and Penny initiate Jupiter 2’s expansion protocol, while Smith and Will discuss the robot. Don West and Angela are rescued by the Watanabe family; Hiroki Watanabe reunites with John and Maureen at Jupiter 11 where Judy treats Angela. Angela tells Judy about the attack on Resolute. The Robinsons learn there were 63 survivors, 27 casualties, and about 13 Jupiter crafts that safely landed. However, none can fly due to the giant eels consuming the fuel. John notices that one crash site is not a Jupiter ship. Maureen, John, and Don go there and discover it is material ripped off Resolute, including the comm dish. This explains why the survivors' emergency messages are not being received by Resolute. Maureen also discovers the contraband whiskey that Don smuggled aboard to sell. Judy confronts Will about the robot, and he reveals he knew it attacked the Resolute. They decide to hide the robot in a nearby cave, unaware that Smith is following them. On the way, they hide from another survivor group, but one member, Vijay, a teen-aged boy, spots them. Penny blackmails Vijay to say nothing about the robot, having found and keeping an item he dropped. Penny tags ‘The Robinsons were here’ in the cave. After the three add their hand prints to the wall, the robot does the same. While away, Maureen and John discuss their marital problems. The next morning, the kids return to Jupiter 2 before their parents return. Smith talks to the robot inside the cave, attempting to instill distrust in it about Will. When John and Maureen return home, the kids tell them that the robot wandered away.

"Transmission" Deborah Chow Kari Drake April 13, 2018 (2018-04-13)
The survivors build an intense-light tower to try to signal the Resolute. Maureen, noticing the rapid rate of change in the length of days and increased temperatures, leaves to conduct an experiment. Using a weather balloon, she observes the sun from high in the atmosphere, discovering their star is actually a deadly star/black hole binary system. The planet will soon pass between them, eradicating all life on its surface. Will ignores Penny and Judy's advice to tell their father about the Robot. Penny develops a crush on Vijay, flirting with him as they move supplies. Smith asks Will for a favor. Don confronts Smith about the stolen flare gun, though she claims she took it by mistake. In a flashback, Maureen and the kids discuss pros versus cons of going to Alpha Centauri. Judy and Don discuss his smuggling activities. He also reveals his suspicions about Smith's identity. Judy confronts Smith about this, but Smith lies and instead casts doubt on Don. The survivors activate the light signal, but Smith sneaks away and shuts off the perimeter fence. Smith tells John about the kids hiding the robot. Meanwhile, a large reptilian creature enters the camp and attacks and destroys the light signal. Another creature shows up, hunting the survivors. Smith tells Will to call the robot. It saves the survivors, who now know it exists and that it attacked the Resolute.

"Eulogy" Vincenzo Natali Ed McCardie April 13, 2018 (2018-04-13)
Maureen debates telling the other survivors about the black hole while John discusses the robot with them. While Angela is enraged that it killed her husband, John argues that it is rebooted and obedient to Will. After adjourning the meeting, Smith, who claims to be a psychologist, offer to "counsel" Angela. The community allows the robot to stay but Will must report all its activities. John takes Will and the robot to a cliff edge and performs a psychologically disturbing lesson. Don offers to sell Victor Dhar his wrecked craft's fuel. It crashed in the desert where there are none of the eel-like creatures which feed on fuel. The craft is precariously perched on a cliff, but the group successfully drain the fuel. Don risks entering Dr. Z. Smith's Jupiter 18 quarters to retrieve proof of the fake Smith's fraud. He retrieves one item before escaping just before the craft dives over the cliff. Don shows Judy a hospital badge with a photo of a man named Dr. Smith. Maureen learns that Hiroki also knows the planet is dying. Penny and Vijay go to a waterfall which has dried up since her earlier visit. She tells him about the black hole but swears him to secrecy. Penny read Vijay's poem, and they share a kiss. Back at camp, Smith "counsels" Angela about the robot's attack, making her recount the horrifying details. Smith channels Angela's raw anger to condition her. John takes Will on a hike with the robot to discuss Will's responsibility for the robot's actions. He has Will fetch 27 large stones to build a memorial to the casualties. Later, Smith suggests that Will ask Maureen to join the others for their family night. Angela enters the hub with the gun and shoots at the robot. The robot goes into attack mode but Will orders it to stop, but not before it injures John. Distraught, Will takes the robot to a cliff and orders it to walk off. He then places a stone on the memorial for the robot.

"Pressurized" Tim Southam Vivian Lee April 13, 2018 (2018-04-13)
Driving back to Jupiter 2, Don and Judy discuss Smith. When Judy radios home, Smith answers. Judy implies that she knows the truth about Smith, but Don stops her before she reveals more. Smith tries to displace blame for Angela's rage by supposedly missing the warning signs. Maureen finds a watermark on the gun belonging to their 3D printer, so Will confirms the robot made it. As Will had hidden the gun under his bed, his parents suspect everyone else in the camp; Smith deflects suspicion to Victor. While driving, John and Maureen escape a geo-phenomenon but drive into a tar pit, trapping the vehicle under hot tar. John opens up about his choices leading to their departure, and Maureen admits to altering Will's failed test results to bring him on the mission. To escape the vehicle, Maureen uses the helium weather balloon to create a shielded path to the surface. Meanwhile, Smith locates the destroyed robot, planning to reassemble it to be subservient to her. Smith becomes enraged when it does not self-repair. Don's group detours through a dangerous geyser patch after another quake, but the fuel tanker malfunctions. Evan manually fixes the problem, but another quake flips the tanker on him. Victor wants to save the fuel. Don makes a moral choice to free Evan, spilling hundreds of gallons of fuel; shortly after, Evan dies while en route to base camp. Back on Jupiter 2, while Penny helps Will recover from killing the robot, Smith reviews Will's logs to find a frequency that reactivates the robot. When Victor returns home, Vijay tells him about the planet's coming demise. Victor chooses to lift off.

"Trajectory" Stephen Surjik Katherine Collins & Kari Drake April 13, 2018 (2018-04-13)
As the Dhar's Jupiter 4 is mid-launch, Maureen radios Victor, urgently warning him that the ship has too little fuel to escape the planet's atmosphere and will crash. John infiltrates the Jupiter 4, and activates the emergency shut down. He gathers all survivors to explain the planet's situation. One ship can be launched using Maureen's plan to incorporate NASA's early mission protocols. The Jupiter 4 will be stripped of excess weight and systems, and the launch controlled from the ground, though once aloft needs a pilot. As everyone prepares the ship, Smith offers to help Will back on the Jupiter 2. Later, Judy tells Maureen the truth about 'Dr. Smith'. Returning to Jupiter 2, Maureen tricks Smith and confines her to a storeroom. Smith recounts partial truths and claims she is really Jessica Harris, a physicist. She implies she may have sabotaged Jupiter 4. When reviewing pilots, John's skills are found to be near perfect, but during the prep-test, John repeatedly fails on the procedure. The Resolute sends a message that due to Hawking radiation, they must leave the solar system within 24 hours. Don reluctantly agrees to help pilot the ship. With his assistance, the prep-tests are successful. In holding, Smith tricks Will into releasing her. Later, as John and Don launch in Jupiter 4, Smith escapes leaving Will bound, and knocks out Maureen before she can give John the course change information. Their ship explodes, and John and Don are presumed dead.

"Resurrection" Tim Southam Story by : Daniel McLellan
Teleplay by : Kari Drake April 13, 2018 (2018-04-13)
In a flashback, Maureen wonders how Earth's detection network failed to detect the Christmas Star meteor months in advance. Meanwhile, Will is transmitting a radio signal to John, who is on a tour of duty. On the Resolute, after escaping custody, Smith overhears two administrators arguing over the engine, which is revealed was stolen from aliens. In the present, Will uses the same radio frequency to try and signal his father, convinced he survived the explosion. In the forest, Smith tells a captive Maureen how she needs her help to reach the alien ship. At the alien craft, Smith reasons that the Robot was likely powered by the ship, but gets no results. Will discovers that the rocks he collected are petrified biomass that can fuel the Jupiter ships to reach Resolute. Hiroki confirms this and says the cave contains enough biomass. However, it must be retrieved quietly to avoid alerting predators living in the cave. Inside the alien ship, Smith is standing against a wall when Maureen notices strands of Smith's hair standing up. Whatever is on the other side is causing it, and Maureen recalls a similar incident on the Resolute. Opening the hatch, she sees that it is the same type of engine that is on the Resolute. Maureen concludes the robot was sent to retrieve the aliens' stolen technology. The Christmas Star was not a meteor but another alien craft. The U.S. government stole their advanced technology, which caused the extinction event. In the cave, Will's radio beeps, awakening the creatures. Angela saves Hiroki, Penny, and Vijay, but they must move quietly to escape with the remaining biomass. Judy uses GPS to track Smith and finds a probable location. Using the chicken as a decoy, Judy tranquilizes Smith and frees Maureen. On fleeing, the robot is reactivated and blocks their escape; it is now linked to Smith.

"Danger, Will Robinson" David Nutter Matt Sazama & Burk Sharpless April 13, 2018 (2018-04-13)
John and Don survived the explosion and are clinging to ship wreckage in orbit. As other Jupiter crafts are successfully launched, Maureen delays take-off to deal with Smith and the restored robot. When John transmits a signal, Maureen persuades Smith to help her rescue him before rendezvousing with Resolute. Maureen and Smith launch the ship into orbit; unbeknownst to them, the robot had hid the alien ship's engine under the land rover. They successfully launch and have one hour to find John and then dock with Resolute before it leaves orbit. Smith, flanked by the robot, orders Maureen to abandon searching for John and fly to the Resolute. Maureen dives the ship back towards the planet. The Robot's protection response is triggered, and it forces Smith into the hub, the ship's strongest section. Maureen locks Smith and the robot inside, but Smith figures out how to escape. Maureen leads the robot into the cargo bay where she intends to blow it out the hatch. The girls hide in the pressurized rover while Maureen and Will put on space suits. When Will tries and fails to reestablish his connection to the robot, Maureen blows it out the hatch. An alien ship arrives to retrieve the engine. Will's robot and the alien one climb back into Jupiter 2. When the alien robot is about to kill Will, his robot remembers him and destroys the alien, saving Will. Maureen is unable to close the damaged cargo hatch. Will, overcoming his previous stress fears, goes outside the hull to manually close the hatch. He shuts it but loses his grip and floats away. He is caught by John, who has grabbed onto a tethered harpoon that Smith re-shot after Maureen's first attempt failed. Later, Maureen is grateful to Smith for saving John and Don West, but says Smith will remain locked up. The Resolute finds them, but before they can dock, the alien engine aboard Jupiter 2 takes control of the ship and triggers a wormhole, sending Jupiter 2 to a different galaxy. Will recognizes its shape from the robot's sand drawing: Danger.
Production[edit]
Development[edit]
In October 2014, it was announced that Legendary Television was developing a new reboot of Lost in Space and had hired Dracula Untold screenwriting duo Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless to pen the new series.[12] In November 2015, Netflix landed the project.[13][14] On June 29, 2016, Netflix officially ordered a full 10 episode season of Lost in Space, with Zack Estrin as executive producer and showrunner. Sazama, Sharpless, Kevin Burns, Jon Jashni, Neil Marshall, and Marc Helwig also serve as executive producers.[15]
Toby Stephens, speaking about the distinction between the original series and the new show:
"It’s a very clever, modern reworking of a great story. Lost In Space is Swiss Family Robinson in space, so it was a story that existed before Lost In Space. The fundamental story is that it’s a family that is lost in a difficult, life-threatening situation and how it challenges them and brings them closer together. That is essentially what the story of this is, it’s just the context is a lot more modern. It's a more modern take on the '60s version. If you look at it now, it's charming, but it seems so innocent. Whereas this is a version that is for our time. I’m hoping it will still have humour and humanity in it, but it has obviously gotta be for a modern audience."[16]
Filming[edit]
Production on the first season began in January 2017, in Vancouver, British Columbia, and concluded in June 2017.[17][18]
Release[edit]
The series was released on April 13, 2018, on Netflix.[1] On March 31, 2018, the pilot of the series was screened exclusively at Awesome Con in Washington, D.C., followed by a Q&A session with series executive directors and writers Matt Sazama & Burk Sharpless.[19]
Reception[edit]
Lost In Space has received a moderate response from critics. The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 68% approval rating with an average rating of 5.26/10, based on 49 reviews. The website's critical consensus reads, "Lost in Space's production values are ambitious enough to attract sci-fi adventure fans, while the story's large heart adds an emotional anchor to all the deep space derring-do."[20] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a normalized score of 58 out of 100 based on 27 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[21]
David Griffin of IGN gave the first season a rating of 8.5/10 calling it "an excellent sci-fi adventure with a slight villain problem," giving particular praise to the Robinson family, while criticising Parker Posey's Dr. Smith as an unsophisticated and one-dimensional character that lacks redeeming qualities. [22]
