    The little touch of the drive exhaust melting/warping a couple of pieces of the scaffolding and heating others orange-hot was outstanding.

      Also notice that on the return trip, one of the tugs gets a little to close to the Nauvoo’s engines and burns up in its exhaust plume.

    The irony that the very ship meant to be a beacon of hope, peace and progress into the future became the largest weapons platform designed to go into battle.

      No the alien magnetar ships were bigger and way faster and maneuverable and almost indestructible. Also the protomolecule station has a weapon that is revealed in the other books.

      Still fails to do it's job as a warship, as the moment it goes combat mode, power goes off. This ship was designed to hold a colony, not a colony + torpedoes + PDCs, that's just asking for trouble in it's already overworked reactor that was designed for it's original purpose. It doesn't have enough juice. What are you going to do about it? Cut propulsion? Or cut Life Support just so you can fire your guns while being a sitting duck to even the most pathetic warship UNN can bring from it's Arsenal.
      Rocinante will dance around this and not miss a single railgun.

    The detail of the swarm of rocket drones that act as "tugs" is really cool. And the coolest thing is that it is plausible, logical and could possibly be applied in real life.
    The hard science of this show is what makes it more delightful to watch.

      Remember that the Nauvoo was the largest ship ever constructed at the time, and somewhat unfinished. Recovering it was a feat that required resources and equipment that only Tycho could provide. Plus, it's clear Fred and the OPA included a backup navigation protocol that would cut the burn in the event of a miss and place the ship into a recoverable solar orbit, the location of which they kept to themselves.

    One of the best executed scenes in SciFi history. The choice to show us the entire 3 minute launch makes it so much more than run of the mill Starship porn. Not that I mind a little ship porn from time to time. But hearing the dialogue that would be right at home now coming of NASA speakers makes it feel bigger and more grounded. Plus the ship survives after all. Spoiler alert. but she survives.
