  1. It is not possible to move a significant percentage of the world’s population into space. It blew my mind when I realized this. In Bladerunner there were ads encouraging people to migrate to the off world colonies, but it would have to be more a matter of seeding colonies rather than mass migration.

    One estimate I’ve seen is that right now there are around 385,000 people born each day and about 160,000 people die. You would have to transport over 200,000 people into space each day to even keep the population level, never mind evacuate the earth, never mind the 30 billion future population of the earth. Even in the Expanse future they aren’t launching thousands of people at a time. You would need trains running to space constantly and that’s not an option. Even space elevators can’t do that kind of traffic.

  2. Sooooo……Earth is super-fucked. It's not dead TODAY, but now it's going to be an enduring an insanely harsh nuclear winter that will last decades, AT LEAST. All the dust and debris from the impacts will be floating around in the atmosphere, blocking out the sun. Huge swaths of populated areas have been wiped off the map. New York has been destroyed, which was essentially the capital of Earth in this time. Obviously, they have much more advanced technology than we have now, but Earth's resources were already spread thin, and the sheer scale of the disaster is almost incomprehensible. For the record, Earth's population is closer to 30 billion people in this universe, so evacuating the planet is basically off the table.

    Marco Inaros is definitely one of the best villains ever. One of the most amazing love-to-hate-him villains ever portrayed. And the protogen scientist is named Cortazar. They have him, and now they have a live protomolecule sample as well. So, it's all bad.

  3. There is the Red Wedding in GoT and an episode or two of BSG which have similar fundamental narrative shifts but the big one is Babylon 5 which has several huge changes in setting (no spoilers when or where).

    The robot was built by 'Savage Industries' which is a nod the Adam Savage of Mythbusters fame, and Chef Casey is a nod to Steven Seagal's character in Under Siege.

  4. Did the face of Sakai (the female terrorist who shot Fred Johnson and was interrogated in the prison cell by Holden) look strangely familiar to you, by any chance?
    She's the actress who played one of the main character maids, Brianna, in Handmaid's Tale.

  5. I live very close to the impact zone of the second asteroid. I had a … hard time, when I heard where it hit. Even though it is fiction, thinking about that occurring, and everyone who I love who would have just died. Yeah, hit too close to home. Pun intended.

  6. The actress who play Nancy Gao ( her real name is also Gao , Lily Gao) is pretty tall. She as tall if not slightly shorter than Frankie Adam (who plays Bobbie Draper) . The shots on UN1 funnily enough is the only time in the entire series we got to see some reference point to her height compared to everyone else , most o her entire scenes in the series we saw her alone or sitting on screen

  7. Hey Nerdy! I’ve noticed that you guys are into your sci-fi shows, so I was hoping you’d look into reaction to a show called Falling Skies if you haven’t already watched it previously in your own time 🙂

  8. they didn't mentioned it in the show,but in the books,they messure the deathtoll by scanning the amount of foul-gas in the streets (from orbit) and calculate back how many dead bodys must lay around. the numbers go into billions.

  9. The Expanse is a great TV series. One niggle though. The asteroids that hit earth are described as having an explosive yield of around 250 kilotons each. But on a global scale a 250kt ground burst is nothing on a planet wide scale even a dozen would have no serious global impact.
