It was the debris of what had very recently been a spacecraft in orbit and in the process of deorbiting - falling - towards Ganymede, the largest moon in the Solar System and twice the mass of Luna. It was most definitely being pulled by gravity - falling - when impacting the station.

"he killed"
War and civil war do not work as simply as you appear to want them to work. Starting the Iraq war because he and his administration convinced themselves that it had to be done was monumentally stupid and an object lesson on the dangers of groupthink, but it's just as dangerous to lay it all on one person

Oh, I'm aware that some reality shows are more like, say, boxing or MMA, to extend the comparison (and both also have their drama enhancements). However, this review is all breathless about a dastardly act of treachery and the possible heel realization that transphobia isn't so cool by audience members and all I can

I was clickbaited into coming here by the headline, but I have a question; how does watching reality shows work? Does everyone pretend that it's not all scripted, like wrestling?

Dubya was many things, but never a madman.

"Falling out of orbit" is a literally correct phrase, though. Orbiting, especially for spacecraft, is essentially falling (being pulled by gravity) towards the orbited object at a rate that equals its forward momentum.

Frankie Adams needs to expect cucumber sandwiches to be foisted on her at every convention she attends for the rest of her days.

Like Zach said, it's more of a general media thing. It's pretty standard to have characters with some development or lines so that the audience has a reaction when they bite the dust. The more characters biting the dust, the more characters who get that sort of intermediate amount of development. If too many

One of the best parts about this show is that there's actual optimism and decent humanity among the people who aren't main characters, which gives it more verisimilitude and just plain enjoyability. It's something that I feel shows like Game of Thrones exclude in favor of absolutely everyone pursuing power, abusing

Schlocky romance is all I'm really aware of. The Notebook is probably the most famous work, and as I understand it involved two people who mooned over each other 14 years before meeting again and deciding they're each others One True Love, and who cares about that fiance of hers (poor James Marsden)? Nevermind the

I suspect I enjoyed it a lot more than the reviewer because I've successfully avoided watching or reading any Sparks media.

Yes, but he could have popped her one in the noggin to make it quick, or doped her up to make it less agonizing. Instead he watched, and visibly enjoyed her pain. That's what drove Naomi off.

The bulkheads may need some scrubbing before everyone else gets back.

Only two things are likely to happen if Draper decides to drape 'er arms around you.

Tell that to Naomi.

It's not what they do that defines you, it's what you do. Holden's definition now includes "watches people die painfully while withholding medical treatment."

"Naomi lost a son. Has this come up before?"
It has been hinted at before, with her being knowledgeable about parenthood while too quick to deny having her own kids.

The US still exists even if fractured, was my point; it didn't get broken by the nuclear exchange and become a failed state in Mad Max anarchy or anything, it's still governed by operational governments. Just like the UK will still exist if Scotland decides to break off. And the American Empire, at least, is still

"As in all the other versions of this multi-media, multiple-continuity franchise, the setting is a quasi-dystopian cyberpunk future where Japan is the sole superpower and the United States no longer exists."

Notice that all of those occurred before the establishment of a full line of succession in 1947,
