In this mid-week bonus ‘cast we take a few of the many listener calls we’ve received over the past few weeks. Highlights: we discuss the agenda of BSG’s “head” characters, ponder Adama’s relationship (realistically and metaphorically) to the Galactica, enjoy the fact that listeners give Ron Moore crap about remembering BSG details too, address the many comments we’ve received and seen about “relativistic” travel (specifically considering acceleration, the fact that “relativistic” doesn’t necessarily mean 99.9% C, and the fact even fifty or a hundred years equals a lot of card games and aging), explore what JC might be like with a little nap (John Cavil, that is), defend the Mass Effect story as hard sci-fi, talk favorite sexy sci-fi novel covers, and envision a combined Transformers/Friday The 13th universe.
The time to accelerate to c at 1g is 354 days.
It’s about a year?
That weirds me out somehow.
