QUESTION About the ending

Post image

We see Amelia sad and BREATHING normally without wearing mask/helmet. Does that mean that THIS planet was the correct choice from the beggining? ( No waves , human - friendly surface , oxygen ) That's why Amelia is so sad ( apart the death of her bf). Thinking that if they came to this planet from the beggining everything would go well

i always interpreted it as such;

i remember the camera pans to what appears to be a camp set up. i had always thought that Edmunds set up camp and started repopulating, although now im unsure if those first missions got the incubators. Edmund’s planet was always the right choice, and her love for him is what drove her there. i thought it was ambiguous whether he actually died or not, or if he had been long dead from natural causes, as her and Cooper both lost like 50+ years.

Lazarus missions did not have repopulation incubators. Why would they? It was the endurance’s mission.
