Continuity

• Seamus is a callback to "the wee baby Seamus" - Cyril Figgis's bastard child with the prostitute named Trinette McGoon who first appeared in Blood Test (s2e3).
• The insignia features an ocelot which is a callback to Babou (Cheryl Tunt's pet ocelot) who first appeared in El Secuestro (s2e10).
• The ship's registration number and insignia incorporates the number 934TXS, a very long running gag which first appeared in Skytanic (s1e7).

Cultural References

• Alien Franchise: the name of the spaceship and the existence of a crew in stasis in cryopods references this well known sci-fi franchise.

Trivia

• In the 3 minute trailer at the end of season 9, (Video Ref) the monitor unit which monitors the life signs of the cryopods in the spaceship reads "M/V Seamus". In the original Alien movie, the ship MV Nostromo, named after Joseph Conrad's boatswain, was a working-class freighter tugging a refinery through deep space (although the subsequent cryopods scene has a closer resemblance to the sequel, Aliens). The Nostromo's AI is known as "Mother", linking Archer's snow-globe comment to the MV Seamus' AI, confirming his continued coma. 

• The seats of the ship bear the insignia of the Polish Air Force - the white and red checkerboard.
