Season 1 of Netflix's 2018 television series Lost in Space consists of 10 full hour episodes. It premiered in May 2018.
In the year 2044, an alien species appeared before Earth and crashed into the planet. However, the government wanted to keep the existence of aliens a secret. By the time the alien craft was detected, it was two days away from impact and the public was informed it was a comet, coined as the Christmas Star. After the craft crashed into Earth, the media called the impact the Christmas Star Incident. While not a catastrophic level meteoric event (like the one that brought the extinction of the dinosaurs), the crash still caused a planetary scale contamination of earth's atmosphere, darkening the skies with its debris. With no sunlight and dense particulate matter, humans began wearing masks to survive; however, earth could no longer properly sustain human existence. Having acquired new technology from the alien crash landing, the American military secretly tasked Dr. Maureen Robinson with helping them construct next generation space crafts for intergalactic travel. Unknown to her, scientists had gained control of the alien ship's faster-than-light drive, and used it to introduce interstellar travel. Once the design, engineering, and manufacturing of the Resolute mothership and its Jupiter spacecrafts were completed, Dr. Robinson intended to make a fresh start with her family along side of the other colonists, in the promising new lands of Alpha Centauri, but there were complications.
Maureen had separated from her husband, John Robinson, and wanted his permission to allow their children to leave with her for Alpha Centauri. The strain for John between military duty and balancing being a father and husband had taken its toll on their marriage. However, John didn’t want to leave his children behind and he decided to join his family to the new world. Originally, their youngest son, Will, had failed the placement exam. Through a secret exchange, Maureen got someone of influence to help her reinstate Will for the journey in return for some secret files. Although she had her concerns, she was happy to know her whole family could leave Earth for a better life. Unfortunately, the journey to Alpha Centauri wouldn’t be so lucky.
By 2046, the colonists were on their way to Alpha Centauri. The alien FTL drive that powered the Resolute had been discovered by the aliens and they wanted it back. The Robot infiltrated the Resolute and attacked the ship’s crew to recover the missing drive. Known to only a few that their ship was under attack, the colonists were told to board their Jupiters for safety and return to the Resolute once the matter was resolved. During this time, June Harris (a career criminal) stowed away aboard the Resolute for a fresh start. When the ship suffered damage, she didn’t have access to a ship and she needed to escape, as she had been arrested earlier for murder. Stealing Dr. Zachery Smith’s jacket, she used his credentials, posing as Family Therapist Dr. Smith, to commandeer Jupiter 18 while the Robinsons fled in Jupiter 2. As the Resolute struggled to restore order to their crumbling ship, various parts of their mothership had splintered and the entire party was taken to an unknown region of space. Either the Resolute or the Robot's ship's FTL drive activated and sucked everyone through and the Jupiters crashed down on a nearby planet. The Jupiter 2, along with other Jupiters, experienced difficulty in landing as the Resolute’s crashing parts affected their ability to pilot the ships. While most made it safely, there was a total of 27 fatalities during the incident.
The Jupiter 2 crash-landed on the cold side of the planet, and the heat from their crash caused the ice to melt and the ship sunk to the bottom. To recover their ship, John wanted Will to dive into the water, but he was afraid to dive in and Judy volunteered instead. Unfortunately, the water froze faster than anticipated. Judy was ultimately frozen and trapped several meters below the surface. With only small tools, the Robinsons attempted to dig her out before her suit ran out of oxygen and she froze, but the effort was taking too long. While observing a white light burning from a distance, Will realized it was magnesium and they could use it to melt down the ice to rescue Judy. John left to excavate the magnesium, taking Will with him to help.
At the magnesium cave, Will helped John identify the magnesium deposit to help rescue Judy. Unfortunately, Will fell through the ice and down into a forest. Because of the situation with Judy was so urgent, John reluctantly left Will to try to help Judy. Will understood what was at stake and waited for his father’s return. It was there he encountered the Robot and his downed spacecraft. It’s unclear what happened during the attack on board the Resolute, but the Robot and its ship crash-landed onto the mysterious planet as well and half of its body was missing. Will found his missing torso and ran for his life, hoping to avoid the robot by climbing up a tree. There, he found the Robot's other half stuck on a branch with him. The robot was on attack mode and lunged after Will. Too afraid to make a move, Will sat very still and attempted to contact his father for help. However, things got deadly with a forest fire.
The crash had ignited a forest fire that was about to burn everything nearby, including Will. Realizing he would die along with the robot, Will decided to break the branch to allow both the robot’s halves to reconnect. Appreciative of the rescue, the Robot transformed himself into a more humanoid form, and took Will to safety. During this time, the rest of the Robinsons continued to struggle to rescue Judy, who was running out of air and would soon suffocate. John didn’t get enough magnesium and the rain was re-freezing the water, resealing the hole they had burned through. Believing it was the end of Judy, the Robinsons held her hand to comfort her in her final moments. Suddenly the Robot appeared with Will. Listening to Will's commands, the robot melted through the ice and freed Judy. After Judy was rescued, the family was saved with the help of the robot’s heating abilities that kept the family warm through the night.
