BTW,
S2E7 "Life Hutch" (the space combat tale) is based on a Harlan Ellison story.
S2E8 "The Drowned Giant" gives credit to J. G. Ballard's story of the same name. But it reminds me of the novel Towing Jehovah by James Morrow, which I've never read, but should.
Wikipedia's synopsis of Towing Jehovah:
God is dead, and now God's two-mile-long cadaver is floating in the Atlantic Ocean, just off the coast of Africa. As a result, the archangel Raphael hires supertanker captain Anthony Van Horne to tow the cadaver into the Arctic, with the intention of having it be preserved by the cold.
