You can make anything scientific if you phrase it right!

Science compels us to explode the sun

You know, you blow up one sun and suddenly everyone expects you to walk on water.

Reminded of a particular scene near the beginning of Project Hail Mary when they're studying something very tough.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Lol. That book was great.

I really hope the movie doesn't murder it too much :/

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I didn't know there was a movie! Now I'm excited!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I think I'd rather see an 8 part series instead, but I'm happy we're getting a movie. I just hope that it will be as good as The Martian was.

They'll probably skip over all the scientific discoveries that happen before the mission to keep things simpler, and I would bet money they change the ending.

And I hope Charlize Theron plays Stratt :)

The Martian was a great adaptation, as long as they follow that path it should be great.

I'm a little worried a certain character won't translate well to screen, but I'll be watching anyways.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah me too. I don't see how they'll look good on screen unless they change R a lot.

Project Hail Mary SpoilersI am actually arachnophobic, so in one way I hope they do change Rocky. I am thinking more octopus like, or something else to make them less spidery.

I really hope their language makes it in unchanged!

Ah, yes, a classic.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Just keep poking! What could possibly go wrong?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

It will explode. It's just sometimes you have to wait longer.
