## Trivia

* This is the first episode of the series to premiere on TV in a language other than English.
* This is the third episode of the reboot that the characters are in outer space, after "Science with Blue" and "Pajama Party with Blue".
* This is the very first time the Thinking Chair skidooed. Even though all these years, the Thinking Chair never skidooed or moved at all accept for what happened in The Wrong Shirt when Bob arrived and he and Steve saw the Thinking Chair was up and it moved down.
* Steve and Joe appear in planet form. They can be seen as a green-striped planet wearing a fedora and glasses and a purple-squared planet with colorful presents floating around it.
	+ Joe being a purple planet was similar to what happened in the Dora the Explorer episode Journey to the Purple Planet.
* Josh and Blue are in space again like they Steve, Joe, Tickety Tock, Sprinkles, and Polka Dots were in Pretend Time, What Experiment Does Blue Want to Try?, Science with Blue, Blue's Big Pajama Party, Pajama Party with Blue, Meet Polka Dots!, Skidoo Adventure, Bluestock (Original/Remake), Mathronauts, and Blue's Anywhere Box Surprise.
* The clue being bright was similar to what happened in What Experiment Does Blue Want to Try?, Science with Blue, and Bluestock (Original/Remake) when Steve, Josh, Blue, and Tickety Tock sung the Planets Song with Toni Braxton and the Sun, and when they sung about Venus, they sang, “Venus is the brightest planet” and being bright like a light, which is similar to what happened in Blue's Senses when Steve and Blue played Lights on Lights Off and when a light was drawn, Blue's Big Pajama Party and Pajama Party with Blue when a lamp was drawn, and The Wrong Shirt when on and off was the answer to Blue’s Clues when Blue left three clues on an up light switch, a lamp, and a down light switch.
* In Pretend Time, Steve’s notebook was regular and had no space pictures on it. Also, he and Blue played house with Shovel and Pail and skidooed into a jungle to help a baboon, dragonfly, and frog to find their matching friends. This time, Josh, Blue and Magenta are actually going into space.
* Mr. Salt appears by himself without Mrs. Pepper, but he did not appear again with her in the credits.

	+ In Blue's Collection, the star clue was blue instead of regular yellow.
	+ This is also the third episode of the franchise where a star was the third clue with Spring is Here! and Blue's Anywhere Box Surprise being the first two. However, in Pretend Time and Blue's Collection, it was the second clue, and in Sleepy Singalong with Blue, it was the first clue.
* A shooting star is the answer to Blue’s Clues, but Steve and Josh saw a shooting star go by in space in What Experiment Does Blue Want to Try? and Science with Blue.

* The pages in the Spacebook are black, so Josh uses a white crayon to draw the clues, which is similar to what happened in Animal Behavior!, Imagine Nation and The Alphabet Train when Steve and Joe drew black and white and a big white circle. Also all these years and episodes when Steve, Joe, and Josh drew clues and when Talking Clues were drawn throughout Seasons 1-6 of the original Blue’s Clues and Seasons 1-4 of Blue’s Clues and You, they were black on the outside and white on the inside and some of the clues were just black inside and outside.
* Mailbox is capable of traveling to space all by himself, but it is strange as to why he did not have a space helmet with him when he appeared because Magenta wore her helmet when she retrieved her spaceship from the Shooting Star.
* This is the first episode where Email appears entirely on the phone, and the first where it doesn't dance.
* Sidetable ended her email with "You're our only hope.", which is a reference to Princess Leia Organa's famous quote from *Star Wars*.
* Josh, Blue, and Magenta not wearing their space helmets on Planet Snail indicates that the planet did have atmosphere and was safe for people to breathe on the planet, in which atmosphere contains air that people breathe, especially on the Earth.
* This is the eighth episode of the reboot where an animated clue moves differently above Josh's head and shoulders. The first seven being ABC's with Blue, Blue's Big Beat Band, Blue's Beach Bonanza, Blue's Snowy Day Surprise, Blue's Mystery Present, Blue's Treasure of Clue Lagoon, and Tickety's Big Musical Morning.
