As long as we're at it (the "mistakes" are about the most diverting
features of this fiasco) how about the scene when the space-walking
astronauts first approach the docking bay of the Discovery?  It's
covered with some kind of space dust, like dirty clay, and one
of their first actions is to brush the surface with their hands.
This space dust is rather earthbound, for it doesn't scatter in a
cloud as you might expect (assuming that dust would settle on a
spaceship anyway) but acts remarkably like the dust on my coffee
table, being attracted to the surface, just like gravity.
