Babylon's Ashes (The Expanse episode)

"Babylon's Ashes" is the sixth episode of the sixth and final season of the American science fiction television series The Expanse. It originally premiered on Amazon Prime in the United States on January 14, 2022, written by Daniel Abraham, Ty Franck, and Naren Shankar, and directed by Breck Eisner. The episode title draws its name from the sixth The Expanse novel of the same name written by James S. A. Corey, the joint pen name of Abraham and Franck.

Showrunner Daniel Abraham had announced in 2020 that Season 6 was the ending of the series while noting in later interviews that further seasons could happen, pointing out that there were three more existing books to adapt material from.

"Babylon's Ashes" continues the events of the previous episode, wherein the Inners (residents of the inner planets of the solar system) and Belters (residents of the asteroid belt's various mining groups) join the crew of the Rocinante in a desperate, high-stakes battle against Marco and his Free Navy.

The series finale has met with largely positive reviews.
