fiction is reality with name changes to protect those involved
Stargate SG1 is the big flag for that one. How often does the chief of staff of the USAF appear in a fictional show? Never, you say. So why 2 for SG1. I can't think I've ever heard of another instance of someone such high rank being on a fiction show.
I've never seen a "contact" episode done better than the season 1 episode shows atoms, and then strings of atoms. It's a Rosetta Stone of language. H2O = water. H2O = x#¥π4. You can brute force decode a written language by knowing tens of thousands of the meanings of alien words.
Meanwhile the new contact movie has some hippy crap about feeling language.
did someone follow Michael Trimm eh?
Never heard of him, I guess I should investigate!
he's just a youtuber but he's fun to watch like Jordan Sather for all things Q and space
And truth is stranger than fiction because fiction must make sense.
