Not a great film but interesting ideas

This wasn't a great film, maybe not even a good one, but it kind of had some interesting ideas about long term space travel and what happens to people on such voyages.

I didn't really understand why they were totally on their own after the initial accident. You got the impression that this ship regularly made a run between Earth and Mars. You'd think its course deviation would have been detected or at least the accident would have been reported via comms and some kind of assistance mission sent out to fix the problem.

It also didn't make sense that they had no backup system for the one that they had to eject. The poem this thing was based on was about how we can make everything but people redundant.

I do think that long space voyages will be a huge challenge to human psychology. Turning an interplanetary ship into some kind of giant shopping/mall cruise ship is probably necessary for the average person to make a transit to Mars. People can't handle the small limits of pandemic mitigation, what the hell are they gonna do on a 7 month voyage to Mars?

Fortunately, I guess, nobody's making any voyages that distance any time soon.
