    Pseudo-Science In Some Sci-Fi Shows

    I think that most of the concepts and specifics of B5's technology are possible from a scientific point of view. -Artificial Gravity is still not commonly used in space projects but it's scientifically possible according to physics.The Omega Class Destroyers and some commercial ships also had...

    Pseudo-Science In Some Sci-Fi Shows

    I think that the only scientific way for a ship to stop in space should be by using front atmospheric thrusters just like the Star Furies move in normal space.The modern space shuttles also use thrusters to correct their orbit.The problem is that the ship needs a large amount of compressed air...

    Pseudo-Science In Some Sci-Fi Shows

    That's right, KF.It's the same as "full stop" in Star Trek. There is no friction in space.That's why a body travelling in space needs just a small push and it will theoretically keep drifting forever.The space probe "Voyager" is expected to come out of our galaxy in millions of years even if...

    HOw would the Shadows and others in the B5 yniverse stack up against those in the Sta

    I think that a bunch of worms depending on human hosts like the Goa'Ulds are pretty dumb and they are no match for The Vorlons,the Shadows or even some of the younger races.I still haven't seen most of SG-1 but I don't think that they are so advanced.

    Lost season 4 (spoilers)

    I was finally able to determine the genre of "Lost".It's a combination of: -"Indiana Jones" -"Robinson Crusoe" -"Survivor" -"Ghost Whisperer" -"Return To The Blue Lagoon" -"Trasure Island" -"Stargate"(because of the mysterious way of travelling to the Sahara Desert) -"6 days 7...

    Your Favourite TV Show Intro?

    I've always thought that "Largo Winch" has a pretty cool intro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiR1Jnvrqsw

    Galactica Season 4 (Spoilers Within)

    It seems that her principles are very important to her.In the first season she was ready to argue with anyone defending Tom Zarek. Much later at the end of Season 3 she left her husband because he joined Baltar's defence during the trial agaist him.That was a surprise for me.

    B5 Episodes You Prefer To Skip?

    I oftenly skip "GROPOS" because I don't find anything interesting in it after the second watching.There is a classic father-son friction that we see in almost every TV show and a short time romantic story which we also see in almost every TV show.It's nice to watch it once maybe twice but no more.

    Galactica Season 4 (Spoilers Within)

    I doubt that one of the supporting characters like Gaeta or Dee is the final cylon.It would look too lame and simple if that's the case.I think it's going to be a much bigger surprise but I have no clue what it could be. By the way what's going on with Kandyse McClure this season.We can hardly...

    Pseudo-Science In Some Sci-Fi Shows

    That's correct.I've watched it on Discovery Channel I think.If we were able to look at the stars from the Proxima Centauri System(4.2 lightyears away from us) the constellations would look almost the same as if we look at them from Earth.The only difference would be that our own sun would be...

    Pseudo-Science In Some Sci-Fi Shows

    This one is about all Star Trek shows. The starship "Enterprise" travels at speeds that are much faster than the speed of light.As we know from physics when a body travels in space it can't even get closer to the speed of light.That's because when the body gains speed it also gains mass.The...

    Pseudo-Science In Some Sci-Fi Shows

    Garovorkin you're right about the lack of sound in space.Maybe everyone in the Sci Fi industry agreed that it would be more interesting and dramatic if the space battles have sound. Lightsabers are cool but they are technically impossible.The beam can't be limited to a particular size and if...

    Pseudo-Science In Some Sci-Fi Shows

    I thought that Delenn is half-Minbari half-Human and she kept 50% of her Minbari DNA. In this case David Sheridan should be 75% human and 25% Minbari. If she's a human then David is a human too.I've always imagined David as a teenager with a bone on his head.;)

    Lost season 4 (spoilers)

    The other explanation could be that the company is actually in a very poor condition and its shares are not that expensive.For example when companies have finansial troubles they have two options-get a credit from a bank or start selling shares.When they start selling more shares than usual...

    Yes GKE we also have: -David Sheridan -The son of Trip and T'Pol in "Enterprise" Season 3 and later on their daughter in Season 4 -Hera and Nick in BSG

    What are you watching now?

    I think he chose the wrong career.He should have tried singing.Remember "Hungry Eyes" or "I've Had The Time Of My Life".Nice stuff.

    Yes Garovorkin Stargate also has a lot of those moments.The atmosheres of almost all of the planets they visit are the same as Earth's atmoshere.It seems that all of those planets have the same gravity as Earth and the characters don't feel heavier or lighter than usual which is very unlikely.
