Sun science. Stages and timeline of sun death.
Spaceship
Solar radiation. Reflector shields. Ion drive. Magical gravity. Oxygen garden. Sun room.
The Crew
LOVE pragmatic Chris Evans. Our favorite person. Cillian is always great. Earth room holo tech. The different captains and their madness. Jumping through space! PS: we’ve covered this before, in episode 1.
Third Act
Thoughts on the third act juxtaposed with the first two.
Tough Decisions
Why return trip? Rendezvous a good idea? Thinning the herd. Pragmatic Chris Evans again.

We looooooooooove the score around this whole thing.
Goodbyes
So if you wake up one morning and it’s a particularly beautiful day, you’ll know we made it. Okay, I’m signing out.
