Culture Reference

The probe Fiarrow2 (ファイアロー2), which is mentioned in the Japanese version of the episode, is a reference to the Japanese space probe Hayabusa2 (はやぶさ2), which translates to Peregrine falcon 2. Fiarrow is very reminiscent to a Peregrine falcon, and is most likely the reason it was used as the reference. The probe in the show closely matches the design of Hayabusa2.

Mamane: Fiarrow2 was launched from here at the Tokusane Space Center to study asteroids!
マーマネ: ファイアロー2は小惑星探査を目的としてここトクサネ宇宙センターから打ち上げられたんだ!
