I was thinking the same, I mean sure the astronauts are typically the peak of human health and fitness so the base is pretty strong, but yeah 3 pairs and 3700 years later and the village is still filled with perfectly healthy, beautiful people?

You two are just to perceptive!
It definitely took me until they were actually in space to realize what the show was going for🙈😂

I mean I have to say that I thematically really like the idea, that the thing that saved humanity was that our science was advanced enough for us to leave the planet itself and that a few of us would just be hanging out ther by accident🤔😊!
But appart from that:
There's no way in he'll 6 people could have a gene pool that would be diverse enought to support a population over thousands of years, the human rce would have died out long ago due to diseases and deformities due to inbreeding😅

I also said the same thing about watching a whole series about the astronauts. Like you guys said, there were 3 and 3, so not a huge gene pool, I have no future knowledge from further than the show and it's not too much further than this, so from what I can tell there would be a lot of inbreeding within the village lol, so their features if they didn't get deformities would be very similar down the family lines.
