  1. I've read the story and watched the movie "The Wandering Earth" a few times and enjoyed it emotionally, but when I first heard about it I had hopes that the celestial mechanics for moving the earth would be like "A World Out of Time" by Larry Niven.

    Let me explain. In Niven's book "the state" turns the planet Uranus into a rocket that is powered by part of its atmosphere which enabling the gas giant to be used as gravitational space tug and a more gentle means to pull the earth out of orbit.

    So this celestial mechanics concept would in "The Wander Earth" scenario shepard the Earth on its multi-generation interstellar trip to a new star system.

    Let me add that with Niven's concept the earth's rotation never need be stopped, both planets make the trip together, with Uranus being cannibalized for motive power and other resources during the journey. Even if you don't read the book, I would love to hear your thoughts about Niven's idea.

  5. Not to criticisixe #CixinLiu and his #threebodyproblem book, but I must say that if I were #writing a #fanfic, I would have written a fifth #wallgazer, made them an #ENBY or #Transwoman, and had them fire up a vast army of hackers and saboteurs to fuck with the Sofons.

    It wouldn't solve the problem or defeat the #Trisolarans, but it would have given them 400 years of frustration, misery, and heartburn, and messed with their technology enough to make the as-written ending a relief to them

  10. Ultimate Guide to Three Body Problem
    youtube.com/watch?v=IrCxmDl2o8

    I highly recommend reading or listening to the whole #RemembranceOfEarthsPast trilogy by #cixinliu and THEN watching this video series that summarizes it all perfectly with graphics. Too many spoilers to watch this first but it brings it all together perfectly.

  15. Ho appena finito di leggere la trilogia del problema dei tre corpi di #CixinLiu. Un'opera magnifica in cui scienza e poesia si fondono alla perfezione, una storia meravigliosa e sorprendente. Per me è un vero capolavoro! ♥️

  16. Currently reading the three body problem, and wow. It’s really good. Spoiler free comments:

    1. I am viscerally aware of the horror of the cultural revolution
    2. Cixin Liu is a ginormous nerd <3
    3. I wish these annoying characters weren’t so realistic

  21. A humorous request to your life insurer:

    Would the policy still be paid out after you got sucked into a black hole?
    Because you would never arrive at the Event Horizon from a relative view, and therefore theoretically never be dead.

  22. Teilzeithelden: Der Blick von den Sternen (Cixin Liu) – Zukunftsperspektiven aus der Vergangenheit (Rezension)

    Seit Cixin Liu weltweit Erfolge feiert, wächst das Interesse an Chinas Science-Fiction stetig. In Der Blick von den Sternen wird eine Sammlung älterer, bisher unübersetzter Texte vorgelegt, die thematisch von Umweltschutz bis Raumfahrt reichen und einen faszinierenden Einblick in die Gedankenwelt eines der berühmtesten Science-Fiction-Autor*innen bietet.

  23. Qualche pagina de "La Materia del Cosmo", secondo volume de "Il Problema dei Tre Corpi" in cui c'è qualche tinta cyberpunk, fra carta igienica che trasmette pubblicità e virus informatici che fanno i sicari.

  27. "El final de la muerte" ha sido un viaje alucinante. No solo cierra la trilogía y toda la historia, avanzando a través de los siglos, iniciada en #elproblemadelostrescuerpos, sino que para mí es el mejor libro de los tres. Con sucesos y consecuencias nada esperadas, y te tiene enganchado queriendo avanzar más.

    Menuda historia se ha sacado de la cabeza Cixin Liu, de lo mejor que he leído en #cienciaficcion en los últimos años.
