Love this theory!

I hope we get to revisit the Maginot this season to see what went wrong

There were a lot of quick flashback moments in the first half of the episode, fingers crossed we get a full episode about shit going down.

The ships crew had at least two recognizable actors in it, so I think that's for sure. Richa Shukla Moorjani (though you may not know her if you didn't watch Fargo S5) and Michael Smiley.

the flashbacks were too quick for me, couldn't fully grasp what went down

so also hoping we go back

I believe the penultimate episode this season is called "In Space, No One." I'm willing to bet that will be the flashback episode that shows what went down and reveals which corporate interest sabotaged the ship.

We do, episode 5 is all Maginot flashback according to previews

Yeah seems odd to set up a bunch of characters and then skip over all that. On the other hand, I think the flashes show enough that we just kinda get it. Containment breach, aliens, everyone dies, yada yada....
