my daughter seems to like scifi. We watched enders game, lost in space series (the new version), arrival, I am mother, and she liked them all. Can I get some more suggestions?

I highly recommend The Expanse on Amazon Prime. A number of badass female characters- Drummer, Naomi, Clarissa, Avrisarala, Bobbi. Not a single Mary Sue among them. 6 seasons, really gets into the meat of the story. Excellent character development,/Arc over the course of the series. Even the guy who is one dimensional (Amos) winds up having depths. If she likes to read, the books are even better. The same, but different. Also, the Murderbot Diaries are really good books, fast easy reads but very entertaining.

Sex scenes tho, be warned. Watched the first episode with my dad recently and it was a little awkward with the space sex. Not sure about the rest of the series.

There's also a lot of violence, and a fair amount of gore, not kid friendly.

Hands down the absolutely best written female characters in sci-fi. Drummer is 5-foot-nothing, and she made Thomas Jane's character literally about-face when she stepped in front of him.
