* GadgeteerGenius: Dr. Skelley knows all about robotics, engineering, and technology. She also holds a strong belief that robots are the future, and teaches the kids about the types of jobs robots have, like helping out at a grocery store, rescuing trapped animals during a flood, collecting comet dust samples, and exploring volcanoes on Mars. She even rebuilds Jet's robot clone, Jet 2, at the end of the episode and makes him into a DoAnything Robot. Now that is awesome.

!!A Hammer and a Feather
The kids learn how, on the moon, a hammer and a feather can drop at the same time due to the lack of atmosphere.
----
* CharacterDevelopment: Sean is excited to go to space, since he loves doing gravity experiments. Compare this to the ''first'' episode of the show, where he was the typical NervousWreck, and you'll see massive character growth.
* DesperateObjectCatch: Jet gets a bit carried away with a gravity experiment and thoughtlessly tosses Sean's telescope off the treehouse balcony. Sunspot [[DivingSave dives underneath it]] and puffs up his belly like a balloon, so the telescope bounces back up again where Sean can reach over the balcony and grab it safely.
* HistoricalFiguresInArchivalMedia: They showed a video of David Scott dropping a hammer and a feather on the moon at the same time.
* InflatingBodyGag: Sunspot inflates his body like a balloon to rescue Sean's telescope.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Sean actually wanting to go to space is met with concern and shock.
* SuperStrength: Celery is revealed to possess super strength, as she lifts up the saucer with one hand.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Carrot tries to drop a chicken egg and an ostrich egg at the same time. Sydney's reaction:
-->'''Sydney''': I think I know where this is going...

!!Commander Mom
The gang goes to meet Sydney's mom, Dr. Skelley, a robotics engineer.
----
* AllThereInTheScript: The official PBS description for this episode says that Dr. Skelley's first name is Amy, but this isn't said in the episode.
* BassoProfundo: After Jet 2 is remade to Jet 3, his voice drops several octaves and sounds extremely deep.
* BookEnds: [[Recap/ReadyJetGoS1E1TourOfTheSolarSystemJetCooksDinner The season one premiere]] starts in Jet's backyard and this episode, the season one finale, ends in Jet's backyard.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Dr. Skelley lampshades how this episode is her first appearance.
-->'''Dr. Skelley''': Well, it's about time you all came to see me, after all those times you've been by to see Sean's mom in the other building.
* ContinuityCavalcade: Clips from "[[Recap/ReadyJetGoS1E30TotalEclipseOfTheSunspotSeansYearInSpace Total Eclipse of the Sunspot]]," "[[Recap/ReadyJetGoS1E23DigginEarthMindysMystery Diggin' Earth]]," "[[Recap/ReadyJetGoS1E9AKidsGuideToMarsJet2 Jet 2]]," and "[[Recap/ReadyJetGoS1E36SeansNeptuneTuneEarthdayBirthday Earthday Birthday]]" are briefly shown in this episode, to show the different things Jet 2 has been made into.
* {{Cosplay}}: Sydney wears a Commander Cressida costume for the entirety of the episode.
* DoAnythingRobot: Dr. Skelley rebuilds Jet 2 into Jet 3, who can do a large variety of tasks at once, such as massage Sunspot's ears, play soccer, and make coffee.
* GadgeteerGenius: Dr. Skelley knows all about robotics, engineering, and technology. She also holds a strong belief that robots are the future, and teaches the kids about the types of jobs robots have, like helping out at a grocery store, rescuing trapped animals during a flood, collecting comet dust samples, and exploring volcanoes on Mars. She even rebuilds Jet's robot clone, Jet 2, at the end of the episode and makes him into a DoAnything Robot. Now that is awesome.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Jet orders Sunspot to get a glass of water for him, but then is taken aback when Sunspot wants ''Jet'' to get water for ''him'''.
-->'''Jet''': Really? After all I do for him?
* ImagineSpot: Sydney imagines herself as Commander Cressida, fighting the spider robot squad, and then gets interrupted by Jet and Sean arriving on the scene.
* LongList: Jet has an extremely long list of things he wants to invent, including attaching a telescope to his helmet so he can watch himself in space, magnetic gloves, a pillow made of pizza, jet-pack pants, a double-decker hover scooter, and a taco machine for the saucer.
* MidSeasonUpgrade: While this episode is the season one finale, Jet 2 is upgraded to Jet 3.
* RoboticReveal: Subverted. Dr. Skelley tells Jet that he and the others already know two robots (Beep and Boop). Jet guesses that the Petersons are robots. However, the Petersons themselves don't appear in this episode, and ([[EpilepticTrees as far as we know]]) are not robots.
* YouGetMeCoffee: There's a RunningGag that involves Jet ordering Sunspot to get him a glass of water, instead of actually helping him with his project.
