    I am a big sci-fi fan but abandoned in season 1

    What am I missing here?

    I think it's great show. I think you ditched it due to some of the tech stuff?

    Apparently i was wrong about this. The folder could probably hold 1 atmosphere easily - but would leak

    Watch if you want, but there are several comments about how they got the physics pretty right. Of course, there are going to be misses along the way.

    I'll try again

    Like I say, I am an old school Asimov style sci-fi fan. Maybe I just had a bad day seeing The Expanse has such great reviews from the sci-fi fan bois

    There is an episode where a ship does a gravity-assisted approach of Jupiter using the various moons' gravity to guide its path and I do remember one astronomer who had watched the show being amazed at how accurate it was.

    I had trouble with the first few episodes of the first season, but by episode 5 or 6, I was pretty much hooked.

    I just started the second episode. It's really fun. Every time a character shows up again, I'm all "yay, Arasavala's on the moon!" "yay, Drummer's a pirate!"

    Loved it! All three episodes. This is such an easy, fun watch.

    I missed Amos, perhaps my favorite TV character? Also, Drummer!

    Avasarala is so much better as a spy. No, that really doesn't give anything away.

    It's gonna be fun to see how this season wraps up.

    I love this series, in general, and it was good to see that that this season still delivers. Amos and Bobbie having their own independent story arcs is fun.
