      Been listening to the audio books.

      Totally worth it.

      Yeah, once you start adding alien tech you break any limitations you had on the universe and it starts going deus ex machina.

      Oh please they don’t “fall apart”. I’m not gonna claim the second two trilogies are as amazing as the first, but the entire series is damn good.

  Ugh I need to watch this show, but there's already so much stuff to watch

    Hey listen.

    You don’t know me and vice versa.

    I cannot recommend The Expanse show any more strongly. There’s a lot of care put into the physics, world building, and characters. The whole show really is a grand ride.

    I would say try watching an episode or two. But in reality a lot of the first two episodes are setup. They’re amazing, but you’re still being introduced to the world. By the end of episode 4, I promise you’ll be hooked.

    One of the best in terms of realistic space physics.

    I can’t stand how they always show spaceships flying directly towards things. It’s like, that’s not where you would be burning to get there, and if you’re getting close you would be pointing the other way and burning retrograde, or else the Millenium Falcon is just going to crash straight into Yavin IV. The other one is stuff “falling out of orbit”, which makes little sense. If your orbit brings you into the atmosphere there’s not much you can do but ride through it and hope you don’t lose too much speed to not come out of it again.

    The one exception is the moon. It just so happens that if you’re in low Earth orbit you burn as the moon rises in front of you, then your apoapse will stretch out to the moon for an intercept with it further along its path.

      I'm like that a lot too with anything in space, but Star Wars clicked for me when someone reminded me it was fantasy in space, not science fiction. Ahsoka really leaned hard into the fantasy and keeping that in mind helped me with suspension of disbelief.

      In other words, Star Wars technology is so different and advanced, we might as well consider it magic and not question when it goes against our normal understanding of physics.

      I tried to listen to the audiobooks after watching the show. You're definitely right, the show knocked it out of the park.

      I like that they ended it, but hope we get to see the story pick back up somewhere in the future. So many plot lines to continue exploring.

  Is all of The Expanse so blue? I don’t remember it that way but I think it might be.

  • Stamets@startrek.website ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    A little bit, yea. Depends on the season and the location but they’re a fan of a specific type of lighting that gives this look.

  The actor is in the new Ahsoka series, but he’s one of the Night Troopers and so you never see his face. :/
