Jessica Harris is a physicist in Netflix's 2018 television series Lost in Space. She is June Harris's sister and she was going to be on the 24th Mission to colonize Alpha Centauri.
Plot[]
Jessica became a physicist and inherited a business from her father. She later began having an affair with a married man.
She was a smoker. She quit, but later started smoking again after her mother's health began deteriorating. ("Echoes")
Before leaving on the 24th mission, she had a visit with her sister June, intending to leave all of her belongings with June before departing Earth. Instead, June drugged Jessica and extracted the identification chip from her forearm, then implanted Jessica's chip into her own forearm. This allowed June to successfully sneak aboard the Resolute disguised as Jessica.

Over half a year later, Captain Radic of the Resolute continued to believe that June was Jessica and that she had murdered a crewmember of the vessel. He disabled her access to the ship's systems. ("Echoes")
After a remorseful June reaches Alpha Centauri nearly two years after leaving Earth, she uses her cover as Dr. Zoe Smith to authorize Jessica as a passenger on the maiden voyage of the Solidarity from Earth, apparently as a way of making up for abandoning Jessica to die. June admits to a curious Maureen who found Jessica's name on the passenger list that Jessica is technically her sister, but she has disowned her. Maureen recognizes that Jessica doesn't know who June really is then and June states that she's not sure that she really knows who she is anymore either. Maureen reassures June that she does and to look her up when she gets out of prison. ("Trust")
Notes & Trivia[]
