Ok so 3 Body Problem has one of the most Horrifying scenes I think I've ever seen in a tv show. If you've seen the series then you'll know exactly what I'm talking about and this is something I think will stick with me for ever. I've only ever done one other scene breakdowns like this where I talked about how a scene was absolutely devastating. That just happened to be the Red Wedding which yeah DnD don't mind killing off several characters at once I guess.
I blamed them for ruining Game Of Thrones but after watching 3 Body Problem they pulled me right back in. It's one of the most impactful things I've ever watched and in this video we're gonna be breaking it down. This includes the subliminal images that appear within it, the deeper meaning and also how it may be more realer than you think.
So come with me bugs because its time to face judgement day and we as a people need to pull ourselves together. Pull yourself together mate and hit the thumbs up and also please subscribe for videos like this every day. With that out the way, thank you for clicking this, now let's get into 3 Body Problem.
Now just to set the scene up we have Auggie being asked if he nanofiber tech can be used as a way to wipe out the judgement day. This will let him get his hands on..

For anyone wondering WHY they did this it's explained in the books better. They need to retrieve the data core from the server. How do they get it quickly? You can't infiltrate them because you have no spies on the inside, you can't do a normal Navy SEAL style attack because they could destroy the core before you get to it. But the nanofibers are invisible and they PERFECTLY cut objects. So you can cut through the whole ship before anyone understands what is even happening and simple reassemble the data core even if it's cut to pieces. They subtly foreshadowed this with the earlier diamond cutting scene where they perfectly cut a diamond. This was the only way they could quickly get the data core to study Sophon in more detail. Getting rid of the cult was a nice side benefit as they considered them terrorists/traitors.

@seraeggobutterworth5247 Ай бұрын

@@mauriciobecker7916The San-Ti who sent the first reply explained it. The “listener” was a pacifist, which is unusual among the San-Ti ren, and he/she/it/whatever was warning Ye that it wouldn’t end well for humanity if the San-Ti came to the Earth. At that point, the San-Ti only know the Earth’s direction relative to their star system; however, they don’t know how far away we are because they don’t know how long Ye’s first signal had to travel before reaching them… Based on direction alone, there are potentially billions of other planets in the universe where the signal could have come from. Netflix leaves it to the viewers to infer that if Ye sends a direct reply to the San-Ti’s response, it will be very easy for them to pinpoint the Earth’s location based on how much time passes between when they sent their first response and when they receive a direct reply from us.

@@mauriciobecker7916because that particular alien knew his people would wreck any intelligent species they found. As is most likely the case in reality for any type 1-2 civilization. You don't want competition on a galactic scale. As long as a species is relegated to one planet, they aren't a threat to your multi planet society. As a multi planet society you ALWAYS have the high ground. If you let another species get out into space, it puts your species in danger because now you are both competing for the high ground. If aliens do know about us, AND want us gone. We are already gone. And there is nothing we can do about it. They could wipe us out from distances so vast they would not even have to get out of bed. Even if they did grace us with a system visit, all they would have to do is throw rocks at us from the belt until we are gone or surrender. Assuming they care if we surrender. A type 3 and above simply would not care about us and would just ignore us, however, then we have the lawnmower problem. Ever mowed the lawn and carefully avoided the ant nests as you did? Or even check if there were any nests there in the first place? We are currently a type .75 civilization. I bet we have already lost, if there is an alien intelligence out there aware of us.

What I like about this episode from Netflix is that they treated Mike Evans as a charismatic cult leader with his followers, and most of them stayed and lived with him on the Judgement Day ship. That is why the nanofiber scene was so impactful. That being said, the show writers failed to make Evans at least try to destroy the data disk because that was the whole point of using the nanofibers.

@ryankwon8785 Ай бұрын

I think Netflix's Mike Evans still believes that the San-Ti have a reason for letting Wade destroy Judgment Day so he kept the disk safe. This works well since the San-Ti literally allowed Wade to access the files despite the warning that it will take millions of years to decrypt. Nevertheless, I think the ETO was handled better in the Netflix show because it shows that they are a morally gray organization that still believe humanity can improve if they coexist with the San-Ti.

@Escape.Velocity Ай бұрын

I think the creative decision to make Judgement Day less of a military vessel and more of a cult-like commune was excellent. It made the scene more horrific and visceral. My nitpick is seeing Mike Evans communicating with the Trisolarans over an old radio with his voice rather than being with text on a computer. I get why they did it, but scientifically it makes no sense. We couldn’t have phone conversations in real-time with aliens in a ship that is several light years away without having faster-than-light communication, which we have not discovered yet. I get that it’s sci-fi but the whole plot is that human technological progress has been stopped.

By introducing the alien wares and how the Sophons (protons) covers the world, we lead to believe that through the Sophons, that is how Evan’s were able to communicate with the San-Ti/Trisolarian in real time.

As you started getting into at the end - there's a huge emphasis on drawing from very real experiments that have been done, but pushing them to the absolute limits of what we think could be possible (because their science is now halted). It's a point made by Wade later ("develop the technology we already have"). There are examples of this throughout the series, but you could probably do a good video on Nuclear Pulse Propulsion and episode 8, if you wanted to. Specifically look at "Project Orion" within nuclear prolusion. It was intended to accelerate towards Alpha Centauri, which is also where the San Ti are from (4 lightyears away in a three body system).

What this show calls nanofibers is a concept that has existed in sci-fi for decades. Since at least the early 80's. In cyberpunk literature they are referred to as monofilament wires. and in cyberpunk, one of the uses is as a weapon. monofilament garrote's are used to sever peoples heads, and put on the leading edges of swords to make them sharper then the sharpest scalpels. Of course, while these monofilament or nanofibers would be weaponized, and they would make navy's obsolete (string a nanofiber between to submersible 2000 dollar drones and they would easily sink any multi-billion dollar aircraft carrier), but the most significant use of such fibers would be to build space elevators with. Space elevators would revolutionize the space industry and would make moon bases and moon mining possible, as it would completely eliminate the cost of rocket fuel to deliver and retrieve payloads form space.

Also how does the spool cut when in the ship scene the ship is lazily going at a speed that, from my limited understanding on fibers, be slow enough for there not to be enough pressure to force the spool to penetrate (at least, not until the ship moves far enough where the spool generates the required pressure via tugging)? Additionally, it seems to have been going slow enough where a person getting cut would actually be able to notice in time via pain to move out the way.

As someone who has read the book series (included the “prequel” Ball Lightning, and the fan-fiction Redemption of Time (which is mild canon), I have never been so happy to see such a faithful adaption of the series (as season 1 incorporates parts of all 3 to keep it more linear & setup future events). This was perfectly executed & so happy to see my imagination of the scene captured so brilliantly. The Ten-Cent series was great but only really hits well if you know the books inside & out. I just can’t wait to see what they do with Book 2/3 & the first half of Redemption of Time as I think they will skip the romantic bits later in the novel.

It's semi accurate, because the weight would certainly keep the ship together after such a clean cut, but I'm not sure if it would actually result in the ship being cut, because it would just rapidly cold weld/bond back together due to the cut being soo clean and down to the atomic level, it would be like it was never cut at all. Only things that could immediately fall apart would be affected, which would still be pretty useful though.

The Dark Forest theory is very easy to counter, and I think this counter-argument could answer the Fermi paradox. 1. A species sufficiently advanced enough to travel through space are almost certainly aware of the Dark Forest theory and their version of the Fermi paradox. 2. A species that announces their presence must be either peacefully naive or genuinely peaceful, considering the "Dark Forest" risk of exposing themselves. 3. A species that purposefully hides their presence is far more likely to have hostile intentions, or at least hostile tendencies. Even a defensive posture could lead to war. 4. Any two species that meet peacefully will almost certainly over time cultivate a strong friendship and ally to protect each other out of mutual benefit. 5. A hostile species that threatens an alliance of two or more species is putting itself at massive risk and disadvantage, 1v2 or worse. 6. Logically it is in the best interest of every species to quickly announce itself and ally with other species to gain the various strategic advantages offered. 7. Given that life is rare, it is highly unlikely that life would develop independently on two different planets in the same solar system at the same time. 8. Therefore it would be de-facto understood that each intelligent species owns it's solar system, even if it hasn't yet ventured away from it's home planet. 9. Any extraterrestrial presence in another species' solar system would almost certainly be interpreted as a threat to the native species. This would put the visitors in terrible standing with the local native species and with the wider community of species. 10. Logically, the first interstellar venture of any space-faring species would be to their nearest neighbouring star. 11. Therefore, if there is life elsewhere in our galaxy and if they are able to reach us, they are probably waiting for us with peaceful intentions near Promixa Centauri. If they were hostile, they would have invaded us by now.

The biggest problem with the Dark Forest is actually hyper abundance of resources in the universe comparatively to the scale chances for life to occur. It may appear small to non-space dwelling races but as we scale up the Kardishev ladder and discern methodologies for taping into greater forms of energy … There could be hundreds of intelligent races in the galaxy and even in our cluster but we still got 59,722 stars visible from telescope within 100 light years. Thats a lot of future Dyson swarms, lots of mechanized custom worlds and hundreds of millions of years just to tap get through all of that, and thats just in our neighborhood. Through genetic exchanges and intermixing, we could more easily become the combined race of all intelligent races around us, than truly get through all those stars, so actual ware-fare for territory between species would kind of become meaningless

There's a similar one at the start of the SF horror flick "The Cube", where we hear the tell-talse _schiiinnnggg_ sound of a sharp object, and then a character literally falls into pieces, having been diced into cubes by something akin to the nanofiber mesh we (don't really) see here. Oh, and Hyperion Cantos also mentions nanofiber tripwires as a particularly gruesome type of area denial weapon. _And_ the Harlequin's Kiss is a particularly gruesome Eldar weapon in the Warhammer 40K 'verse, where it fires a coil of nanofilament at its target which will then unfold _inside_ of the target, slicing them to bits from the inside out.

On the other hand Europeans did most certainly wipe out the Tasmanians and the Taino among others. Okay I'm nitpicking. 06:55 An interesting idea, but with a lot of problems. For one thing it presumes entire species reach such decisions once and irrevocably, that no two or more species might make a different decision and have it work, that growth and expansion is in fact something which all civilizations will ultimately view as an absolute value (there have even been human civilizations, quite major ones, that did not see life that way at all), that the natural state of all life is paranoia, that all cultures ultimately plan for survival on a cosmic scale (i.e. millions if not billions of years at the least), etc. It makes for a great story--obviously--but it doesn't make a lot of sense.

This video doesn't fully explain dark forest theory or the book-specific details of it because your points are covered by them both. You're absolutely right about us (or anyone) being able to predict the values and actions of countless other civilizations when we don't even know what forms other beings might even take seeing as how we have literally only 1 single point of reference. Any scientist would agree with you that 1 data point is laughable when it comes to making predictions. Without going into a long winded rant (which I'd love to do), it basically comes down to too many factors and variables working against your civilization to be able to afford the risk of doing anything other than both hiding, and shooting first. You could be friendly, your next-door neighbor can be friendly, and you guys might even make a friendship/alliance possible. But will the third civilization or the fourth be as willing? The book had this one great quote wish I could remember it but it's like.. if we have billions of habitable planets (just the ones we think are habitable, could be more) in just our galaxy, it's possible that a million civilizations reach intelligence and could be a possible threat. If you send out a galactic "hello" and only 10% of the civilizations choose to care at all, and only 10% of those care to investigate further, well of the 10,000 that discover you then surely 1 of them will attack just to eliminate potential risk. There are other connected variables on offer for you to consider like the chain of suspicion and a technological explosion all coupled with the sheer vastness of space and the limitations of technology and the speed of light but the theory basically says that 'most' and not all would come to this conclusion. But I definitely agree with your point about humanity's narcissism just making wild assumptions about countless possible forms of life as if we know everything.. all while have zero information to go on. I honestly believe if you dig deeper then you would give the theory a bit more validity, even though it is just a theory, but there I go assuming things after just saying how dumb that is! Anyways, hope you enjoy the story :)
