Yep. There’s that one episode I can’t watch because most of it is the Roci somehow just floating ~10 metres above the surface of Ganymede and how it took only an hour or two to transit all of the Jovian moons… was that another episode? I don’t know, I never watch them. ;_;
Nevertheless, the way their ships are designed so that the thrust vectors of the engines match with humans not falling to their deaths when a hallway becomes hole.
Yeah that maneuver would work… if you had a few years to do it. But it was a race against the clock kind of episode they were doing that in.
Also the idea of spinning asteroids (like Ceres) to make artificial gravity was a good idea at the time. But the general consensus now is that asteroids are more like balls of gravel so if you spin them up, they’d just fly apart.
But it’s a great show despite the nitpicks. The ship designs are awesome and needing to do a flip and burns and stuff like that is cool to see.
I really love The Expanse for that, but it also ruined basically every other sci-fi for me.
There’s a few inaccuracies in The Expanse too.
