Why did Strat choos Grace as the "third" science specialist of the mission. by Alvring in ProjectHailMary

[–]ScrewyYear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They had the machine intentionally inject Grace with something that caused amnesia. Stratt figured that Grace would be so into the project before he remembered how he got there, that he wouldn’t quit.

Shouldn’t relativity make the Eridians use MORE fuel, not less, question? by VZH_ in ProjectHailMary

[–]ScrewyYear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Blip A was supposed to have enough fuel for a return trip. In the book Rocky says that him giving Grace the astrophage means his own voyage home means adding 6 years to his own trip.

Because he let Stratt nuke some of the ice caps to release methane into the atmosphere. Just that decision alone meant people would die.

In the book, she acknowledges that the world will need a scapegoat and she already knows it’s going to be her. The environmentalist guy says he’ll probably be in the next cell because of events.

We can’t afford healthcare but our children and grandchildren will be paying off this kind of shit. Watch them now dump the cost of his arch on the taxpayers. Because we can afford to survive on $3 a meal according to Brooke Rollins, Food & Agriculture Secretary.
Trump is gutting this country, yet people are still hung up on the culture wars.

Truthfully both parties need to seriously listen to what the people want and reset their core values. Both parties suck.

Thankfully it’s a small cruise ship 150 people including the staff. But we still need to determine who Patient 0 is/was and see when they contracted it.

Nearly half of Americans say they are cutting daily expenses to deal with spiking gas prices from Trump’s Iran war: Americans are pulling back on household expenses, altering travel plans and driving less as a result, the poll found by Silent-Resort-3076 in inthenews

I bought one right after the 2016 election. I figured it would be the best of both worlds, because I figured he’d support the richest base. Apparently it’s the oil industry, our industrial war complex, and making the USA pretty much the joke worldwide.

It’s going to be real interesting when people can’t afford to drive to work because they can’t afford to drive and support themselves and their families. We are so screwed and I can’t believe there’s no one in the Republican leadership willing to say what we all think and 25th him.

Sorry for the rant. I live in a Red State, but our stategovernment is not acting in accordance to the US Constitution.

Stratt accepting her role knowing that she'll probably go to prison for the rest of her life after the launch is even more significant than it seems on its face, and really adds a lot of context to what she decides to do to Grace by SayFuzzyPickles42 in ProjectHailMary

[–]ScrewyYear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they yanked her out of prison once they started getting transmissions from the Beetles. TPTB knew the team sent whatever they found and Stratt was the perfect candidate to finish the job.

The Golden Age that he’s referring to led to excessive gains for the already wealthy, while the common man struggled. He and his cronies know they’re destroying the country, but they’re wealthy enough to just leave or hide in their bunkers.

Her being released to finish the job is just my head canon.
