I'm curious as to why Pudgey said that Solomon Epstein was a name that didn't age well?

Lars

I know it's rather obvious, but just in case, this is where the show starts covering the second book.

Terminal

I’ve never seen this show or even watched this reaction but this comment is genuinely hilarious with no context

neutchain

It's the whole thing with Jeffrey Epstein.

Vero

25:06 Notice they have to touch their helmets together so that sound can travel across. The surface has no air to carry sound wave.

The significance of Solomon Epstein's drive is akin to inventing combustion engines, airplanes, jet propulsion, nuclear fusion, electricity, stuff like that. I'll break it down a little. The fastest spacecraft ever to reach Saturn was the New Horizons probe and it took 2 years and 4 months. In this show with a comfortable 1G burn to the halfway point and a 1G burn again for the second half of the trip in the opposite direction ( breaking ) the trip is a few weeks long. The Saturn is around 80 light minutes away depending on where she is on her orbit but thats the average. That means that any radio signal takes 80 minutes to reach Saturn becasue that travels at light speed. Getting that far out in weeks is so far away from what we can do at the moment that we might as well could call it magic. The Epstein drive not only had insane thrust but it was also super fuel efficient allowing people to venture out much further in a reasonable time and start building/mining in the asteroid belt and the jovian system. ( the moons of Jupiter ). Like I said, its like discovering fire. The last episode felt like a season finale becasue this show doesnt care about seasons. They were implementing a book series into a TV show with the help of the original authors working on the show as producers so seasons means nothing, the end of books mark the end of the seasons.

Pamela Hofman

Oh right, of course. Thank you. Now I feel bad for anyone whose last name happens to be Epstein. That's way worse than a woman named Karen. Yikes.

Julien

It was a bit of a silly thing to say. Epstein is a fairly common name. I don't think most people automatically associate it with that sordid character at all. I know I don't. I wouldn't have thought about it if she hadn't mentioned it.

Pamela Hofman

Perhaps it’s the only reference she has for it. It’s pretty common in the US. I don’t know about Australia.

Fred Ferraro

Just to expand on this the series is made up of 9 books (though the show only covers the first 6) and a number of novellas. The Epstein Drive story is from the novella Drive. So when you see a side story like this it is often from a novella. There are few others in the series.

Steven

The focus on the Epstein drive, and the danger of new technology, is also meant parallel humans' experimentation with the protomolecule.

Jonathan

you guys are so....sweet. how can you guys be so sweet summer children haha. that discussion argument is hilarious, fight!

Truth Fundi

I don’t know. - I think I am with Pudgey on this one. When I hear Epstein drive today, my mind immediately pictures a thumb drive with a client list that is locked in someone’s safe instead of the spaceship drive from my favorite SciFi series

Blackd0nuts

Exactly and it ties to the title of the episode "Pradigm shift". These leaps in technology changes and redifines everything, our societies, how we see the world, etc.
