"Im Weltraum hört dich niemand schreien."
Das Zitat meint oft Isolation ohne Hoffnung auf "gehört werden". In der Trainings-Szene aus "Novi Fines" ist die Abwesenheit externer Hilfe die Motivation für die Gruppe. Es braucht Willen und Struktur, um die Situation zu meistern. Autorität ist hier ein Werkzeug des Überlebens.

Hearts and Minds: An Ambivalent Review of “Project Hail Mary”
'All the people emphasizing the scientific rigor of #ProjectHailMary , all those praising it as a work of #HardSF —I’d argue they’re cheapening the concept, at the very least.'
Peter Watts pastwi się nad "Projektem Hail Mary". A dokładniej nad odczytywaniem go jako hard SF.
And the 15-degree temperature drop that's supposed to be an extinction-level event. The last glacial maximum was about that.
Just... basic worldbuilding.
It's annoying me more than it should, probably. But this is supposed to be hard sci-fi, right? #ScienceFiction #HardSF #BookCritique

#DamienWalter predigt, dass auch sogenannter Realismus oder #HardSF eben ›nur‹ #Fantasy ist. Fantasy, Phantastik, ist der Grundmodus. Und das meiste, was Menschen damit machen, sind eben Märchen zum Traumeverarbeiten, Selbsttrost, Selbstanspornung oder Selbsttäuschung — von Täuschung, Trost, Ansporn anderer ganz zu schweigen.
In Echt sind nicht Statuen-Ruinen »Seht meine Werke, Mächt’ge, und erbebt!«, sondern Zone Rogue, KZ Dachau oder Tschernobyl. Leider.

Underway to a culmination that will speculate about how consciousness arises in the human brain (starting next week, these things need and take time):
