There is a fair number of brand-new characters as well as existing ones. Some will die and some will just sort of leave the story. And we have to start making those decisions now. 2023 Showrunners (probably) posted:some older characters will now have a beard

I feel like they went a little too far with the time jumps season to season.

A decade per season is a good pace, they just failed to commit to cycling characters in and out over time as they should

I hope the season starts with them burying the characters that aren’t coming back so we know for sure they’re not coming back

I dunno did 9/11 happen? Probably not since the Middle East might not be as flush with cash.

All of the seasons are good but there are a few story missteps but it doesn’t take away from the show being overall good.

They’re mining Helium-3 on the moon for fusion, they don’t need Uranium for fission.

They could always do a Organization of Lithium Exporting Countries and have it centered around South America cause apparently a lot of those countries have vast reserves of lithium (according to my 15 seconds of googling). And then they wouldn’t have to change much of the history since the US has hosed around in South America a lot irl.

Lots of lithium out in the stars at this point

That would be premature and unearned, making me pine once again for a KSR Mars Trilogy show instead, so yeah that’s probably what it’ll be.

Nah, push comes to shove, we can filter uranium out of seawater. It's expensive but the beauty of fission is that fuel costs are a small fraction of the total energy cost.

Glad we're in the 2000s. I don't get why so many people are eager for this show to do a big time jump to become another space opera set in the future. The "alt history" angle is the biggest unique factor that makes it hit different than Star Trek, The Expanse, The Ark, Dark Matter, et al. I'm also glad if they did quietly ditch a few characters between seasons-- while I like the alt history angle, the half-century running soap opera nepotism dynasties were straining credulity.
