As a lover of not only Sci-Fi but scientific debate on the possibilities of the things I’ve seen in movies with my poor friends who just want to watch the movie, this scratches an itch in my brain I never thought would be reached. Thanks for solving my endless curiosity with some realistic and entertaining answers!
