  I love The Three Body Problem, both the books and the show. But it bothered me to no end to read Netflix’s Three Body Problem.

    I’m not familiar with the books, and the plot summary of their Wikipedia article does not mention nuclear propulsion whereas the article for the series does, so I went with that.

    Unless what bothers you is the x followed by the apostrophe and the s, which I never know when to omit the s, so it is what it is.

      Ah gotcha. Yeah you should check out the books if you’re liking the show! The books go into a ton more detail and the Staircase Project is pretty cool. Seeing it on the screen is cool too, but if you really wanna nerd out I highly recommend the books.
