Экспедиция «Тяготение»

The scientific accuracy in the depiction of the alien planet is impressive. I wonder what inspired the level of technical detail and how much was based on real science.

The cultural and social structures felt so alien yet believable, which made me think about how different environments shape civilizations. Was that intentional?

The story feels like a deep dive into physics and ecology. I’m curious if the emphasis on science was a conscious choice to make the story more authentic.
