Episode 8

"LOST AND FOUND" is the eighth episode of the Astra Lost in Space anime.

Summary
In the board room of the Astra, Paulina introduces herself as an astronaut of the Arc VI. Paulina and her crew made an emergency landing on the Planet Icriss due to a malfunctioning communicator. In their attempt to safely land on the planet, they're attacked by the local flora and crash land under a cliff. Her fellow crew members go missing after they scour the periphery leaving Paulina alone. So she enters the hibernation pod in hopes that one day someone would be able to rescue her. The goal of her crew was interplanetary habitation, in other words, finding a suitable planet for humans to populate. Kanata and the crew then bring up the fact that their ship is also broken due to its reactor being broken in an accident. The news shocks and causes Paulina to fall unconscious. After an explanation of the safe habitats on Icriss, Aries has an epiphany of how to repair their ship with parts from Arc VI. The crew waste no time and fix the ship, while Paulina awakens in the infirmary. There, Yun-Hua talks with Paulina and updates her on the situation. Delighted by the news of the ship's repair she is, however, left aghast by what year it is.

Day 80 of being lost in space, Charce gives an update on the food supply and reports that it's astounding. He goes on to talk about the different kinds of edible plants on the planet and Zack and Quitterie hunt for food. The two have a heart to heart with one another and it escalates rather quickly with the topic of romance and marriage. A week later, the crew on Paulina's behest, search the planet for traces of her lost crewmates. At the location of the Arc VI Rover, they find that it's been dilapidated by the elements. After finding an ID tag of one of the crewmates, they're ambushed by three monstrous flora and escape. Later on, the ship finally leaves Icriss and Kanata proposes they have a party to commemorate the occasion. The conversation then switches to the crew's individual blood types and then to how Quitterie and Funicia are not real sisters. This leads to the crew to have their DNA scanned by the ship's computer and the results are astonishing.
