@juergen_hubert One frustration with Star Trek, and a lot of science fiction works, is that they rarely show scientists doing science, much less make it central to the plot.

A common Star Trek episode setup is something like, "Captain's Log: we're in the Greek Name system, recording spectral data, which gives us time to..." and whatever the episode is actually about.

Anyway, I'd like some science fiction once in a while that's about scientists doing science. That kind of exploring.
