Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis episode perpetuates the myth that exploding hydrogen was the cause of the Hindenburg crash. Actually, the cause has been proved to be the coating of the aircraft skin - consisting of aluminum powder and iron hydrate. This mixture was used in rocket fuel. Once ignited by a spark, the coating burned very quickly, destroying the skin of the aircraft. The hydrogen would not have ignited and burned in such a manner on its own due to a lack of adequate oxygen within the airframe. Once the skin burned, the hydrogen would have ignited and burned quickly and relatively safely above the aircraft.
- GoofsDuring the crash of the Hindenburg, a piano is seen sliding across the lounge. In reality, the piano was removed from the Hindenburg before the 1937 season, and therefore was not present during the crash in New Jersey.

Connor Mason: You need to go with them.
Rufus Carlin: I can't. I am a coder. Okay? That is what I'm good at. All right? I don't like to leave my desk, let alone go in there or back then. Also, I don't know how it works across the pond, but I am black. There is literally no place in American history that'll be awesome for me.

Featured review
Worth a watch
This show had a fantastic budget, I think it still triumphs over the storylines and make them better. Shawn Ryan had said before that they had 6-10million per episode. Now to the episode, timetraveling to the Hindenburg crash. The concept is nice for a sci fi but still reminds me of the network style writing. Nothing new but the actors make it work.
