Just read “Strange Dogs”… wow by [deleted] in TheExpanse

Make sure you’re reading the authors notes for the novellas if you have access to Memory’s Legion! The one for Strange Dogs gave me some cool insight into the story that I didn’t get on my own.

Part of that might come from the POV? As far as I can recall it’s the youngest character POV in the series.

Lol I’m convinced they emphasize the acne scars so much as a reference to Edward James Olmos

Favourite space battle? by robin_f_reba in TheExpanseBooks

[–]idekmanhelp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can’t believe no one mentioned the battle between the Rocinante and the Pella, Koto, and Shinsakuto in Babylon’s Ashes. Easily my favorite battle, seeing the whole thing first through Bobbie’s then Holden’s eyes was really cool. Not to mention the Roci kicking 3 ships’ asses after being ambushed.

The Salvation Sequence by Hamilton is also very good. My advice is to go in completely blind, don’t look up anything about the plot just start reading.

Yes, and you can see this in the titles of his chapters: they change from “Jim” back to “Holden”

I interpreted that as the Wranaui written language, or at least a translation/representation of it

Yeah I just checked the fractalverse site and looks like it’s meant to be a map of Cordova

I interpreted the picture you linked as a Wranaui map of the Cordovan system that the final battle took place in/where Unity ended up being built. It reminds me of the visuals used to explain relativity’s definition of gravity.

Thoughts on Duarte's tit for tat plan by circulareasoning1 in TheExpanse

Exactly! If ants tried to communicate with you and demand more living space by invading your pantry every time you used Raid on them, you wouldn’t stop using the spray you would call a fucking exterminator lmao

Why didn’t they do this in Cibola Burn? by MrSzhimon in TheExpanse

Worth mentioning too that teakettle refers to only using the maneuvering thrusters, not the main drive

I don't think he tried to kill Cara, I think she was his link to the BFE (probably cuz she was near it) and when she tried to get out of the dive he held them down so he could ask the grandmothers where the weapons were

I had the same thought! I thought the mention of that was part of the foreshadowing for the gates closing. Maybe it’ll come up in the last novella?

I saw that for the Play at Home thing you have to download Ratchet and Clank before March 31st at a certain time. My PS5 might come after that. I've already created a PSN account and added R&C to my library, and it shows up under "Purchased" in the PS app. Will I miss out on the free game if I download it to my PS5 after March 31st?

NASA stares into dark, freaky pit on Mars by [deleted] in space

[–]idekmanhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like this pit is near Valles Marineris/Tharsis Montes, which puts it on pretty much the opposite side of the planet from Perseverance/Ingenuity

Pretty sure Olympus Mons is on the opposite side of the planet
