... Should have made it go around the mug so it would be a time circle.

Is the Enterprise faster than the Millennium Falcon?
Can a light saber deflect a phaser beam?
Catch maybe
The scale of the star wars universe is much bigger than Star Trek. The millennium falcon can cross their whole galaxy in the time it takes the enterprise to cross federation controlled space, which is just a portion of a quadrant of our galaxy.
Phaser beams travel at the speed of light, and can stay on continuously for long periods, an ensign could hit the button and sweep the beam across a Jedi and kill him pretty easily.
Hmmm....jedi takes it comes back as force ghost and haunts ensign for rest of their days
I'll be that guy, where do I find this?
I ran it thru Google image (shudder) and found a couple sites. Here’s one
Awesome, thank you!
That was all very organic.
It's been a long road...
Getting from there to here...
Needs to have a Spacing Guild Heighliner in there too.
Feel like an idiot here, but what’s the bottom one?
Just a regular police box, nothing unusual at all.
It's the same as the top one... you tardis!
Needs an Avatar from Eve.
You could have picked any other titan from that game, and you went with the one that looks like a mushroom... (I would have gone with the Tempest, because of Clear Skies)
Also we dont have defined dates for when the game takes place. We know its atleast ~15k years in the future, but anything beyond that is fuzzy at best.
Yeah, but it's the most commonly used and widely recognized. It probably also wouldn't fit on the cup.
Where is the Rocinante ?
Remember the cant
Issa fixen bossman
Or serenity, for that matter. And not to be a purist, but my laptop has the Tachi MCRN logo on it. Oh shit, I should get the "a legitimate salvage," too. Great idea, friend, thanks!
Most badass ship from The Expanse imo is the Voice of the Whirlwind, but it didn't make it to the TV show (yet?).
That's one extremely optimistic "yet."
Excuse the ignorance, but what's the ship from 148000? It's looks like BS Galactica?
The reboot of BSG places it 150,000 years before our present.
This made a lot of people very angry. I, for one, liked it. YMMV.
When you say reboot, I was thinking that Esmail's reboot got made without me knowing about it (entirely possible, I'm pretty OOTL on television). I had to look it up that it died in the crib.
I still consider the 2004 series the actual serious BSG. I was around for the original and it was typical 80s schlock, though I loved it as a preteen.
It's a bit weird though, as the mythological baking of the cast would suggest they colonized earth just before the classical era. Trace, Apollo etc.
The timeline was fine. The way plot threads came together wasn't fine.
I didn't care for their implication that we don't have a clear chain of human evolution in a sci-fi show but I also didn't expect that much from a series that had a running and viable theory that Cylonism was an STD.
Season 3 was some of the most riveting television I have ever watched. I’m a bit of a sucker but I still really liked Season 4 despite its pacing, it was a victim of the writers strike.
