Theory	Citations	Notes
Hana has a list of evolved humans.	She knew where Ted was. (Unexpected)	+ She could've intercepted some of Mohinder's phone calls or emails, or even accessed the list on Mohinder's computer. - Ted's name has not been visible on the list in any aired episodes, nor has his name been mentioned to be on it. - Hana could also have tracked Ted using her powers quite easily, assuming Ted left some kind of electronic trail in reaching Nevada. Even if the Company kept Ted's escape and existence out of the media, their own e-mail and phone-calls would still be accessible to Hana. Hana did get to Ted just before Homeland Security did, making it more than likely she was piggy-backing off their reconnaissance. (How Do You Stop an Exploding Man?, Part 1)
Hana has Asperger Syndrome.	None	+ Her Mossad psychological profile explicitly suggests it, citing a "difficulty in understanding the subtext of social interactions". This would account for her tendency toward inappropriate reactions, such as hitting the IDF enlisting officer, and the unsubtle "seduction" of Casey Smith. - That does not necessarily indicate Asperger's; trouble with social situations can be the cause of lack of exposure to social interaction as well as traumatic experiences. The latter definitely applies to Hana.
Hana didn't die in the upper atmosphere, she was rescued by Nathan.	Two days after Hana causes the satellite to self-destruct in high orbit, Hana has a wireless communication with Micah. (The Death of Hana Gitelman, Part 2)	• As Nathan and Peter enter the cold upper atmosphere, Peter could have cooled and doesn't explode, and Nathan sees Hana riding the satellite that is about to explode, and rescues her just prior to its explosion preventing her death. - The end of How to Stop an Exploding Man shows an explosion in the sky above NY approximately where Peter and Nathan flew. If that wasn't Peter, it's an amazing coincidence - While it's a nice idea, the timeline of the comics suggests that Hana was not attacking the satellite at the exact same time Nathan was flying away with Peter. Also, the satellite was above Australia and would not have been visible falling in New York. - Also, Hana's last words in the comic seem to say, pretty definitely, that Hana did die but that her soul is still living on as a sort of electronic ghost.
Hana can "live" in cyberspace.	Two days after Hana causes the satellite to self-destruct in high orbit, Hana has a wireless communication with Micah. (The Death of Hana Gitelman, Part 2)	+ She says that her journey is just beginning. + Hana will communicate with Micah more frequently via his laptop, causing D.L. and Nikki to suspect that he is having a similar experience to Nikki and Jessica.
