They mentioned if they got close enough the torpedoes wouldn't be a problem. So I guess they've got an arming distance or something.

Yeah if they just made the starfield move in the right direction, it probably could have worked.

He's travelling at 1g when he leaves the station, he'd continue on that trajectory. e:Hang on, I've confused myself. Yeah, I must have somehow thought it was looking down, but that wouldn't have made sense with how he's thrown in.

Wait if it's a spinning station wouldn't they be walking on the sides? Meaning all surfaces perpendicular to their 'floor' would be looking up or down? He should have gone in the direction the station was rotating, either left or right offscreen. e:No, I'm an idiot that would be what would happen if they dropped him in the pit style one from last season.

There needs to be a scene with a belter pouring something into a glass expecting the coriolis effect only to spill the drink all over themselves. Or an Earther/Martian who doesn't expect it.

uber_stoat posted:what dialogue? there's an awful lot of it. Unfortunately context clues are a thing. Don't worry about it though. They have to make the series interesting for book readers anyway, so I'm sure being spoiled on one aspect of a character won't be that big of a deal.

Your cells are still completely hosed. And being able to fix them with fairly routine ship-board first aid strays pretty far from the 'good enough' feel of the rest of the setting. It's not something that particularly bothered me though.

Being cynical, it's probably because they think viewers wouldn't be able to distinguish slums on Earth from the Belt.

I think it was the other way around, the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs was 1/4 the size of Eros.

counterfeitsaint posted:If you're going to be like that about it then there's no point trying to make a comparison to anyone at any point in history ever, except maybe the last 15 years. Bit of a tangent, but I really dislike this idea in history. It basically acts as a whitewash and erases the stories of people at the time who did actually resist problematic hegemonic thoughts in favour of preserving the image of certain figures.

So why was Johnson so pissed off with Holden at the end? That seemed pretty out of left-field. They had one disagreement about the feasibility of going to Ganymede. Hardly seems like the thing that would push him into revoking their right to dock at the station.

The reasons are that the ship starts accelerating away from them. They do an external shot showing the reaction thrusters firing. e:fb

ZorajitZorajit posted:I know this is pedantic, but isn't "We fired on the Earthers before they fired on us," a true statement she could make that would gel with what she's saying happened and the line Mars wants to sell? And, if pushed, "We believed we saw them firing on us." This is one point where I'm not totally understanding the sticking point of the drama. I don't think they did fire on the Earthers. They teamed up with them to fight the alien. She's just having trouble remembering.

emanresu tnuocca posted:It's just that providing housing for everyone should be pretty trivial for the sort of organization that is capable of hollowing out asteroids and putting them under spin gravity, you could easily feed and house everyone on earth with the kind of engineering feats that were seen in both show and books, if Ganymede can produce enough food to feed its own population and tens of millions more in the belt you'd expect that on earth with the far more ideal conditions the government could easily produce enough food to feed everyone on earth and luna comfortably. It's easy enough for us to do right now. It's pretty realistic in that regard.

You'd think they'd want to give people on basic a bit more money so that they actually contributed to consumption. There's no real point to basic if you lose all of it to the grey and black markets. You'd think corporations would be lobbying the poo poo out of the un to increase it.

It's more that other people said Basic in the books is presented as being a lot better. Which would make more sense and allow Basic to actually work.
