It doesn’t help when you’ve got Hollywood providing the science lessons.

And that doesn’t even begin to get into the full-on agitprop of movies like Day After Tomorrow and Gore’s Inconvenient Hoax.

I have had an idea for a science fiction show that would give a way to explain real science; things like orbits, relativistic time dilation, etc., while still being entertaining (many characters who don’t like each other on board the ship; an ancient ship that needs a lot of maintenance; different planets to visit; etc.)

I’m working on using the setting for short stories.
