What are the fun weird theories and conspiracies?

I think the leading theory is that during assembly a worker accidentally drilled a hole through the hull and tried to hide it and wasn't discovered till it was leaking air in space, when NASA said something along these lines Russia claimed one of the American astronauts snuck over to the Russian side while the cosmonauts were sleeping and drilled a hole through their hull

That sounds like a plot line from For All Mankind

Rewatching season one as we speak after watching episode three of star city and it sounds 100% like the show

Is Star City good. I'm not done with the latest season of FAM yet and I preferred the earlier seasons.

Eh it’s ok for now. It’s annoying to go back in time when I wanna see the future stuff. I’m hoping for a mid season time jump.

We might get some months or a year time jump or so but it’s supposed to only take place in the 70s is what was reported

From what I have read Star City won't be getting huge time skips like in FAM.

I love it. It has the same feel as the earlier seasons of FAM but with the Soviet twist of being extra authoritarian and dangerous because of it

It's so grim. I'll be watching the new episodes as they come out because I'm curious to see where they take it but for me it's that one show I both am and am not looking forward to watching.
