Kickstarter , PBC Screenshot Type of business Public - benefit corporation Type of site Crowdfunding Headquarters Brooklyn , New York , U.S. Founder ( s ) Perry Chen Yancey Strickler Charles Adler Industry Financial services Internet Website kickstarter.com Alexa rank 508 ( October 2017 ) Launched April 28 , 2009 ; 8 years ago ( 2009 - 04 - 28 ) Kickstarter is an American public - benefit corporation based in Brooklyn , New York , that maintains a global crowdfunding platform focused on creativity and merchandising . The company 's stated mission is to `` help bring creative projects to life '' . Kickstarter has reportedly received more than $1.9 billion in pledges from 9.4 million backers to fund 257,000 creative projects , such as films , music , stage shows , comics , journalism , video games , technology and food - related projects . People who back Kickstarter projects are offered tangible rewards or experiences in exchange for their pledges . This model traces its roots to subscription model of arts patronage , where artists would go directly to their audiences to fund their work .

The New York Times called Kickstarter `` the people 's NEA '' . Time named it one of the `` Best Inventions of 2010 '' and `` Best Websites of 2011 '' . Kickstarter reportedly raised $10 million funding from backers including NYC - based venture firm Union Square Ventures and angel investors such as Jack Dorsey , Zach Klein and Caterina Fake . The company is based in Greenpoint , Brooklyn . Andy Baio served as the site 's CTO until November 2010 , when he joined Expert Labs . Lance Ivy has been Lead Developer since the website launched . On February 14 , 2013 , Kickstarter released an iOS app called Kickstarter for the iPhone . The app is aimed at users who create and back projects and is the first time Kickstarter has had an official mobile presence . On October 31 , 2012 , Kickstarter opened projects based in the United Kingdom , followed by projects based in Canada on September 9 , 2013 , Australia and New Zealand on November 13 , 2013 , the Netherlands on April 28 , 2014 , Denmark , Ireland , Norway , and Sweden on September 15 , 2014 , Germany on April 28 , 2015 , France and Spain on May 19 , 2015 , Austria , Belgium , Italy , Luxembourg and Switzerland on June 16 , 2015 , Singapore and Hong Kong on August 30 , 2016 , Mexico on November 15 , 2016 and Japan on September 12 , 2017 . In July 2017 , Strickler announced his resignation . Model ( edit ) Kickstarter is one of a number of crowdfunding platforms for gathering money from the public , which circumvents traditional avenues of investment . Project creators choose a deadline and a minimum funding goal . If the goal is not met by the deadline , no funds are collected ( a kind of assurance contract ) . The platform is open to backers from anywhere in the world and to creators from the US , UK , Canada , Australia , New Zealand , The Netherlands , Denmark , Ireland , Norway , Sweden , Spain , France , Germany , Austria , Italy , Belgium , Luxembourg , Switzerland and Mexico . Kickstarter applies a 5 % fee on the total amount of the funds raised . Their payments processor applies an additional 3 -- 5 % fee . Unlike many forums for fundraising or investment , Kickstarter claims no ownership over the projects and the work they produce . The web pages of projects launched on the site are permanently archived and accessible to the public . After funding is completed , projects and uploaded media can not be edited or removed from the site . There is no guarantee that people who post projects on Kickstarter will deliver on their projects , use the money to implement their projects , or that the completed projects will meet backers ' expectations . Kickstarter advises backers to use their own judgment on supporting a project . They also warn project leaders that they could be liable for legal damages from backers for failure to deliver on promises . Projects might also fail even after a successful fundraising campaign when creators underestimate the total costs required or technical difficulties to be overcome . Asked what made Kickstarter different from other crowdfunding platforms , co-founder Perry Chen said : `` I wonder if people really know what the definition of crowdfunding is . Or , if there 's even an agreed upon definition of what it is . We have n't actively supported the use of the term because it can provoke more confusion . In our case , we focus on a middle ground between patronage and commerce . People are offering cool stuff and experiences in exchange for the support of their ideas . People are creating these mini-economies around their project ideas . So , you are n't coming to the site to get something for nothing ; you are trying to create value for the people who support you . We focus on creative projects -- music , film , technology , art , design , food and publishing -- and within the category of crowdfunding of the arts , we are probably ten times the size of all of the others combined . '' Projects ( edit ) On June 21 , 2012 , Kickstarter began publishing statistics on its projects . As of February 13 , 2015 , there were 207,135 launched projects ( 7,802 in progress ) , with a success rate of 40 % . The total amount pledged was $1,523,718,656 . The business grew quickly in its early years . In 2010 Kickstarter had 3,910 successful projects and $27,638,318 pledged . The corresponding figures for 2011 were 11,836 successfully funded projects and $99,344,381 pledged ; and there were 18,109 successfully funded projects , $319,786,629 pledged in 2012 . On February 9 , 2012 , Kickstarter hit a number of milestones . A dock made for the iPhone designed by Casey Hopkins became the first Kickstarter project to exceed one million dollars in pledges . A few hours later , a new adventure game project started by computer game developers , Double Fine Productions , reached the same figure , having been launched less than 24 hours earlier , and finished with over $3 million pledged . This was also the first time Kickstarter raised over a million dollars in pledges in a single day . On August 30 , 2014 , the `` Coolest Cooler '' , an icebox created by Ryan Grepper , became the most funded Kickstarter project in history , with US $13.28 million in funding , breaking the record previously held by the Pebble smart watch . In July 2012 , Wharton professor Ethan Mollick and Jeanne Pi conducted research into what contributes to a project 's success or failure on Kickstarter . Some key findings from the analysis were that increasing goal size is negatively associated with success , projects that are featured on the Kickstarter homepage have an 89 % chance of being successful , compared to 30 % without , and that for an average $10,000 project , a 30 - day project has a 35 % chance of success , while a 60 - day project has a 29 % chance of success , all other things being constant . The ten largest Kickstarter projects by funds raised are listed below . Among successful projects , most raise between $1,000 and $9,999 . These dollar amounts drop to less than half in the Design , Games , and Technology categories . However , the median amount raised for the latter two categories remains in the four - figure range . There is substantial variation in the success rate of projects falling under different categories . Over two thirds of completed dance projects have been successful . In contrast , fewer than 30 % of completed fashion projects have reached their goal . Most failing projects fail to achieve 20 % of their goals and this trend applies across all categories . Indeed , over 80 % of projects that pass the 20 % mark reach their goal . Categories ( edit ) Creators categorize their projects into one of 13 categories and 36 subcategories . They are : Art , Comics , Dance , Design , Fashion , Film and Video , Food , Games , Music , Photography , Publishing , Technology and Theater . Of these categories , Film & Video and Music are the largest categories and have raised the most amount of money . These categories , along with Games , account for over half the money raised . Video games and tabletop games alone account for more than $2 out of every $10 spent on Kickstarter . Guidelines ( edit ) To maintain its focus as a funding platform for creative projects , Kickstarter has outlined three guidelines for all project creators to follow : creators can fund projects only ; projects must fit within one of the site 's 13 creative categories ; and creators must abide by the site 's prohibited uses , which include charity and awareness campaigns . Kickstarter has additional requirements for hardware and product design projects . These include Banning the use of photorealistic renderings and simulations demonstrating a product Banning projects for genetically modified organisms . Limiting awards to single items or a `` sensible set '' of items relevant to the project ( e.g. , multiple light bulbs for a house ) Requiring a physical prototype Requiring a manufacturing plan The guidelines are designed to reinforce Kickstarter 's position that people are backing projects , not placing orders for a product . To underscore the notion that Kickstarter is a place in which creators and audiences make things together , creators across all categories are asked to describe the risks and challenges a project faces in producing it . This educates the public about the project goals and encourages contributions to the community . Notable projects and creators ( edit ) At $8.5 million , the Ouya is the 8th largest successful Kickstarter campaign . Several creative works have gone on to receive critical acclaim and accolades after being funded on Kickstarter . Others , such as the Ouya console , have resulted in commercial failure . The documentary short `` Sun Come Up '' and documentary short `` Incident in New Baghdad '' were each nominated for an Academy Award ; contemporary art projects `` EyeWriter '' and `` Hip - Hop Word Count '' were both chosen to exhibit in the Museum of Modern Art in 2011 ; filmmaker Matt Porterfield was selected to screen his film Putty Hill at the Whitney Biennial In 2012 ; author Rob Walker 's Hypothetical Futures project exhibited at the 13th International Venice Architecture Biennale ; musician Amanda Palmer 's album `` Theatre is Evil '' debuted at No. 10 on the Billboard 200 ; designer Scott Wilson won a National Design Award from Smithsonian 's Cooper - Hewitt , National Design Museum following the success of his TikTok + LunaTik project ; the Kickstarter funded GoldieBlox toy gained nationwide distribution in 2013 ; and approximately 10 % of the films accepted into the Sundance , SXSW and Tribeca Film Festivals are projects funded on Kickstarter . Numerous well - known creators have used Kickstarter to produce their work , including : musicians Jennifer Paige , Paula Cole , TLC , Amanda McBroom , De La Soul , Amanda Palmer , Daniel Johnston , Stuart Murdoch and Tom Rush ; filmmakers and actors Kevin Sorbo , Alyson Hannigan , Zach Braff , Bret Easton Ellis , Colin Hanks , Ed Begley , Jr. , Gary Hustwit , Hal Hartley , Jennie Livingston , Mark Duplass , Matthew Modine , Paul Schrader , Ricki Lake , Whoopi Goldberg , Kristen Bell , John de Lancie and Zana Briski ; authors and writers Dan Harmon , Kevin Kelly , Neal Stephenson , Steve Altes , and Seth Godin ; photographers Spencer Tunick , Shane Lavalette , and Gerd Ludwig ; game developers Tim Schafer , Keiji Inafune , Brian Fargo , and Rand Miller ; designer Stefan Sagmeister ; animator John Kricfalusi ; comedian Eugene Mirman ; animators Don Bluth and Gary Goldman ; entrepreneurs Tim Ferriss , Samuel Agboola and Craig Mod ; and custom guitar maker Moniker . The Glowing Plant project was the first and only Kickstarter project to fund the development of a genetically modified organism ( GMO ) .

Questions were raised about the projects in internet communities related to the fields of the projects . The concerns raised were : apparent copying of graphics from other sources ; unrealistic performance or price claims ; and failure of project sponsors to deliver on prior Kickstarter projects . A small list of canceled projects includes : Eye3 camera drone helicopter for unrealistic performance promises , photos copied from other commercial products , and failure of creators to deliver on an earlier Kickstarter project . Mythic : The Story of Gods and Men adventure game for copying graphics from other games and unrealistic performance promises ; the creator had raised $4,739 on an $80,000 goal before canceling the project . Tech - Sync Power System for failing to provide photos of the prototype and sudden departure of project creator . Tentacle Bento , a card game intended to satirize Japanese school girl tentacle rape comics , after being criticized in the online media for having inappropriate content . Kobe Red , a project for jerky made from Kobe beef , was canceled after raising $120,309 . The project was allegedly fraudulent . iFind claimed to be a battery - free item locating tag . Critics of the project raised serious doubts about its viability , focussing on its claimed EM harvesting capability and the lack of a working prototype . Kickstarter suspended funding after $546,852 had been raised . Controversies ( edit ) In the Huffington Post article `` Why Kickstarter is Corrupted '' Nathan Resnick blames the rise of paid advertising , investor - backed campaigns , and crowdfunding agencies for the decline of Kickstarter as a useful tool for small inventors and creators . Resnick cites Nebia , backed by Tim Cook and Eric Schmidt , as an example of a well funded , investor - backed project using Kickstarter purely for publicity , thus drawing donations from smaller teams . He goes on to note the highest profile crowdfunding marketing agency , `` Funded Today '' , charges a 35 % commission on all monies raised , regardless of their contribution , while reserving the right to abandon projects they 've pledged to support and claims such huge fees can make it impossible for successful projects to survive even if they hit their targets . Funded Today can collect as much as 50 % of the total amount a campaign raised as fees , when the four - figure up - front charges they levy are accounted for . In addition , many individual projects caused controversy . In May 2014 , Kickstarter blocked fundraising for a TV film about late - term abortionist Kermit Gosnell . Producer Phelim McAleer claimed Kickstarter censored the project because of its graphic content and espousing a `` liberal agenda '' . In June 2014 the project received approval for fundraising from rival site Indiegogo , raising more than $2.3 million . On November 6 , 2013 , writer / director Hal Hartley launched a Kickstarter campaign to produce his upcoming film Ned Rifle , seeking a total of $384,000 . On November 25 , Hartley added a $9,000 reward tier offering the film 's distribution rights for seven years in the United States and other countries , making his Kickstarter campaign the first to propose offering film distribution rights . Subsequently , Kickstarter notified Hartley selling distribution rights is a form of investment , which is forbidden by Kickstarter 's terms and conditions , forcing Hartley to remove the option . In June 2013 , there was controversy over the book Above the Game , a guidebook on seducing women . Outlets pointed how the advice in the book seemed to encourage sexual assault . Although Kickstarter received a significant alert , they failed to pull the project . The site eventually wrote a letter of apology and placed a blanket ban on `` Seduction guides '' In April 2013 , filmmaker Zach Braff used Kickstarter to fund his film Wish I Was Here and raised $2 million in three days , citing the success of Rob Thomas ' Veronica Mars Kickstarter as his inspiration . Braff received criticism for using the site , saying his celebrity status would draw attention from other creatives who lack celebrity recognition , the same kind of criticism regarding big figures in the gaming industry using Kickstarter . ( One example is Richard Garriott , who created a successful $1 + million Kickstarter despite his personal fortune ) . Kickstarter disputed these arguments by claiming , according to their metrics , big name projects attract new visitors , who in turn pledge to lesser known projects . Since 2013 , several crowdfunding campaigns have been accused of creating fake contributors to fool the public into thinking the campaigns were successful , and to defraud potential sources of matching funds . In 2012 , Amanda Palmer raised $1.2 million on Kickstarter . She wrote about how she used the money , however several other musicians reviewed these expenses and said they were extravagant and possibly fraudulent . She was further criticized for attempting to have musicians play with her for free on tour , after raising such a large sum . In May 2011 , a New York University film student , Matias Shimada , raised $1,726 to make a film , but plagiarized another film . He later apologized to the public . Patent disputes ( edit ) On September 30 , 2011 , Kickstarter filed a declaratory judgment suit against ArtistShare in an attempt to invalidate U.S. crowd - funding patent US 7885887 , `` Methods and apparatuses for financing and marketing a creative work '' . Kickstarter asked that the patent be invalidated , or , at the very least , that the court find that Kickstarter is not liable for infringement . In February 2012 , ArtistShare and Fan Funded responded to Kickstarter 's complaint by filing a motion to dismiss the lawsuit . They asserted that patent infringement litigation was never threatened , that `` ArtistShare merely approached Kickstarter about licensing their platform , including patent rights '' , and that `` rather than responding to ArtistShare 's request for a counter-proposal , Kickstarter filed this lawsuit . '' The judge ruled that the case could go forward . ArtistShare then responded by filing a counterclaim alleging that Kickstarter was indeed infringing its patent . In June 2015 , Kickstarter won its lawsuit with the judge declaring ArtistShare 's patent invalid . On November 21 , 2012 , 3D Systems filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Formlabs and Kickstarter for infringing its 3D printer patent US 5,597,520 , '' Simultaneous multiple - layer curing in stereolithography . '' Formlabs had raised $2.9 million in a Kickstarter campaign to fund its own competitive printer . The company said that Kickstarter caused `` irreparable injury and damage '' to its business by promoting the Form 1 printer , and taking a 5 % cut of pledged funds . A six - month stay was granted by the judge for settlement talks in which Kickstarter did not participate . On January 23 , 2015 , Alphacap Ventures LLC filed a patent infringement lawsuit against multiple crowdfunding platforms , including Indiegogo , CircleUp , GoFundMe , Kickstarter , Gust , RocketHub & Innovational Funding , for three patents -- US 7848976 , US 7908208 and US 8433630 . According to Bloomberg , Alphacap Ventures provides strategic , operations , and financial advisory services in the United States along with other financial services See also ( edit ) Civic crowdfunding Comparison of crowd funding services List of video game crowdfunding projects Open - source hardware Tech companies in the New York City metropolitan region GoFundMe Indiegogo References ( edit ) Jump up ^ `` Kickstarter.com Site Info '' .

Title Directed by Written by Original release date `` 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 . `` Diamonds In The Sky '' Neil Marshall Matt Sazama & Burk Sharpless April 13 , 2018 ( 2018 - 04 - 13 ) Don West , Smith , and Debbie the chicken survive the Jupiter 18 landing , Tam Roughneck does not . Don spots a parachute in the distance and goes to investigate , taking Smith and the chicken with him . They find Angela Goddard , who is barely alive . Seeing distant smoke that could be Angela 's ship , they head off , with Don carrying Angela . When they take cover from an incoming storm , Smith offers to search for help while Don stays with Angela . 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 . 5 `` 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 . 6 `` 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 . 7 `` 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 . 8 `` 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 .

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 .

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 .

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 .

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 . In November 2015 , Netflix landed the project . 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 . 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 got ta be for a modern audience . '' Filming ( edit ) Production on the first season began in January 2017 , in Vancouver , British Columbia , and concluded in June 2017 . Release ( edit ) The series was released on April 13 , 2018 , on Netflix . 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 . 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 . '' Metacritic , which uses a weighted average , assigned a normalized score of 58 out of 100 based on 27 critics , indicating `` mixed or average reviews '' . 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 .
