But why slow down before impact? That bugged me a bit if the asteroid is moving faster than 20G over the distance.

If it's moving too fast, it will vaporize itself on impact. I suppose they want us to believe this thing is going to survive the crash into Venus.

What a show! I'm saving them up and watching 3 at a time. Saw 4-6 last night and it keeps getting better and better. So I guess Epstein really is screwed huh? Too bad, I like the actor, I was hoping he'd be part of it somehow.

He was, in the same way Zefram Cochran was part of Star Trek after his death. biggrin

Great news! SyFy has really returned to its roots. Maybe they can change the channel name back.
And also interesting that we're getting Krypton. Sounds like a Caprica type story.

Glad they are renewing for season 3. The last two episodes, however, have felt weird.

Interesting about 12 Monkeys getting one more season after this year's. Of course, after just 2 seasons so much has happened and changed on the show I'm not really surprised. I don't think they could maintain this indefinitely.

Being based on books, the Expanse will last till they run out of material I would think.

At least they are not showing Wrestling anymore. Tried to figure out how that got on to the SciFi channel.

The head of SFC put it there to gain ratings. It was 100% a business decision to get money.

Also keep in mind that NBC Universal owns the SyFy Channel so a lot of those programming decisions didn't originate from within SyFy.
