These two episodes are the typical hook to reel viewers in after some heavy worldbuilding early on (and even still ongoing in this episode). This show does a lot of work to stress the importance of what we take for granted in present day, and how things could go horribly dystopian if care isn't taken to better our trajectory. Re: Havelock, my best guess is that the lower the gravity, the slower blood will flow and the better chance of clotting. Ceres is ~0.33G iirc, so as long as that rebar remained in place keeping that wound closed, his internal injuries would be slower to worsen (compared to on Earth at 1G) and he'd take longer to bleed out. In contrast, Lopez could probably have survived a bit longer, but going at max burn would put such a strain on his body and heart that he'd be gone pretty quick.

Also, interactions among people and politics are largely realistic, and there are a number of good characters. You're watching Band of Brothers, which is excellent. That one is largely gorier than the Expanse.

RIP Lopez who knew the acceleration burn away from the ship he wouldn't survive because of his injuries. My favorite part of the show is how real the physics are and how they are used, like what Holden did with Naomi on that catwalk.

2024-01-04 00:37:01 +0000 UTCMerry Christmas and happy holidays! I had to watch this right away after getting home from family celebrations. About your question about Jim Holden's parentage, he was born on a co-op or a hippy commune to 8 parents and and he has genetic material from all 8. Holden is a test tube baby, he's a mix of 8 people instead of just 1 mom and dad. I guess that's future science, I don't get it but I guess that could be possible in the future. His mom Elise carried him and gave birth to him as Holden mentions. But yes, the expanse definitely makes me happy to live on earth and not in space. No one charges me for air so that's a win.
