“The tables have turned,” exec producer Naren Shankar says. “The Belters have waged a war on [their former exploiters] Earth and Mars.”

Holden committed the Rocinante to stopping Marco and his Free Navy from launching asteroid rocks at Earth. “The crew has been on a jeopardy-filled recon mission for months, and they are worn down,” he adds.

But Shankar warns of “dangers beyond Marco” on the final six episodes (released weekly). As Earth’s U.N. secretary-general (Shohreh Aghdashloo) sends former Martian Marine Bobbie Draper (Frankie Adams) on a mission to even the fight, Holden’s fears about deadly forces lurking inside the Ring Gates are now proving to be real.

Rogue Martians have taken the alien technology known as “protomolecule” to the solar system’s furthest reaches. “We’ve learned,” reminds Shankar, “when bringing protomolecule near a planet, [bleep] happens!”
